=== Aditi ===
[[Aditi (अदिति)]] has two primary attributes in the Vedas namely, the motherhood of Devas and her power of bestowing freedom from worldly existence. In the Vedas, she is described as the Cow and as the Mother. Psychologically, Aditi is the undivided supreme or Infinite Consciousness, Devamata, in opposition to Danu or Diti the divided consciousness. Danu or Diti being the mother of Aditi is the deity who is integral and extensive. She is bright and luminous. She is the supporter of creatures and belongs to all men apart from heavenly and earthly beings. She is invoked in the morning, at noon and at sunset to release the worshipper.
