	Indra
		Indra is mentioned as having a wife, and the name of Indrani or Aindri is invoked among the goddesses.
		Indra was greatly enraged at this, and sent a deluge of rain to overwhelm them; but Krishna lifted up the mountain Govardhana on his finger to shelter them, and so held it for seven days, till Indra was baffled and rendered homage to Krishna.
		Among the deeds of Indra recorded in the Puranas is that of the destruction of the offspring of Diti in her womb, and the production therefrom of the Maruts (see Diti); and there is a story of his cutting off the wings of the mountains with his thunderbolts, because they were refractory and troublesome.

	Iranica.com - INDRA
		In sharp contrast to the Indra of the R_gveda, the most celebrated god (deva‚;) of the Vedic pantheon, whose defeat of the Snake of cosmic obstruction, Vrátra, is an act of creation, the Indra of the Avesta is a relatively insignificant dae@wa, mentioned only twice in conjunction with other demons, most significantly Saurwa (Ved.
		In this regard the myth of Vrátra overlaps with another myth, that of Vala and the Panáis, which is a version of an IE complex of cattle-raiding myths, where the Aryans steal cows in the illegitimate possession of barbarians.
		In the attempt to reconstruct Indra's history within the two Indo-Iranian branches one might suppose that he was demonized in Iran because, after Zaraƒuætra's reform, the violent traits of his character were deemed offensive, being worthy only of a da_wa.
