Arbudi and Nyarbudi are two gods mentioned in the Vedas.
They are the companions of Indra. They are prayed to for success in battle. Arbudi
and Nyarbudi cover the atmosphere and the great earth.
The deities have a huge army and they help human beings in
winning battles by dispersing and piercing the enemies.
They terrify the enemy by giving them a glimpse of the arms,
the arrows, the power of bows, the swords, the axes and other weapons.
They also show to enemies the demons and pisachas produced
by magical spells or huge meteors in the sky.
Arbudi and Nyarbudi play psychological warfare – they scare
the enemies before they venture into the battlefield. The scared enemies are
then easily crushed and overpowerd.
