=== इन्द्रः ॥ Indra ===
In the Vedas, Indra is described as the most powerful of the devatas. He is described as devata for wars as well as for clouds by others. Some opine that he is Surya and others attribute him to a strong mind. In the Vedas, we see Indra as one who brings light, as a protector from rakshasas such as Vrtrasura, as one who brings rains, a yoddha (warrior), a ruler, a lover of Somarasa and as the presiding deity in Yajnas.
