| | Asura |
| | Asura, from Sanskrit meaning a "power-seeking" and "power-hungry" being, is similar to a Titan, often, but somewhat misleading, described as a "demon"; or anaya (non-Aryan) people of ancient India. | | | In Hindu mythology sura came to mean a minor godin contrast to a-sura, "not-god" or "demon," but this is believed to be a false etymology. | | | In younger Vedic texts and Hindu mythology asuras become demons or titans who war against the devas (gods). |

| | Asura |
| | The word is found with this signification in the later parts of the Rigveda, particularly in the last book, and also in the Atharva,. | | | The Brahmanas attach the same meaning to it, and record many contests between the Asuras and the gods. | | | In this sense a different derivation has been found for it: the source is no longer asu, `breath,' but the initial a is taken as the negative prefix, and asura signifies 'not a god;' hence, according to some, arose the word sura, commonly used for 'a god.' |

| | 4.8. INVASIONIST TERMS IN THE VEDAS |
| | Asura is the original Indo-Iranian and Vedic term for “Lord”, a form of address both for the gods and for people of rank. | | | The religious difference between Iranians and Vedic “fire-worshippers” was a minor difference in emphasis, and had nothing to do with the causes of their conflict. | | | However, there never existed a separate category of celestial beings called Asuras; the Devas themselves were originally addressed as Asura. |

| | Asura |
| | The fight between the Devas and the Asuras is mentioned even in the oldest books of the Tipitaka and is described in identical words in several passages (E.g., D.ii.285; S.i.222; iv.201ff; v.447; M.i.253; A.iv.432; also S.i.216ff). | | | But the Buddha says that it was an Asura army in flight. | | | There it is said that when Sakka was born among them, the Asuras received him with great cordiality; see also the various incidents of the Asura war mentioned in the Samyutta Nikāya I. 216ff. |

| | Unfortunately, it is also a teaching that the Persians have compromised after their prophet Zarathushtra's time - in the name of maintaining a total opposition between good and evil. | | | Gabrielle asks about the main hymn, the *Asura Yasht*. | | | First, they would simply watch the Magi perform their rituals, and read from the *Avesta*, which they now know to be the Sacred Scriptures of Asura. |

| | Other views treat the asuras as resulting from bad karma and hence they are seen as the enemies of the gods. | | | Some forms of Buddhism view the asuras as stemming from bad karma and other ignore them completely, having only five states of existence. | | | In this interpretation, they dwell in the lower heavens. |

| | Aesir-Asura correspondence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | However, in Norse mythology the Æsir are generally approved of (and worshipped) while the asuras have a more negative reputation in the Indian religions. | | | Both words describe a family of gods, the Æsir is the pantheon of the principal Norse gods, and Asuras are a group of Hindu gods. | | | However, the use of ahura to refer to the greatest god of Zoroastrianism implies that the word once had more favorable connotations. |

| | Asura Lost Eden CD Review |
| | The meaning of “Asura” has evolved over the years, however, and eventually became a label for evil beings that were opposed to the gods. | | | Apparently, the term “Asura” describes the mysterious nature of Vedic gods. | | | But based solely upon the sound of this music alone, it appears as if the group Asura is going for the “mysterious lord” connotation of the word, as this album is filled with an exotic mixture of world music, placed over techno rhythm devices. |

| | In Hinduism, the Asura are a group of deities, sometimes inaccurately called demons, who were opposed to the devas. | | | Mitra, Varuna and Vritra are the most well known Asuras. | | | This observation corroborates with the hypothesis that a single tribe in Central Asia split into two due to cultural differences and went separate ways, both ideologically and geographically, one migrating to India and the other to Persia. |

| | Though many others have combined world music elements with electronica, Asura carves out their own niche. | | | Asura drops in some funky world percussion to get thing moving, and then lets this percolate for a few minutes. | | | When this works, their arrangements give the tracks a unique sound that seems to come from an alternate world. |

| | indieville: review: asura - lost eden |
| | For the most part, however, this is a relaxed bit of "World music" infused chillout techno. | | | If you can get over the fact that it sounds like a Pure Moods compilation, you should be able to find a lot to like on Asura's Lost Eden. | | | Lost Eden takes sounds from many sources (at times it's Jarre-esque, at other times it sounds like it's swiping effects from the Survivor theme song.) While I can't shake the Pure Moods feeling, I can still enjoy what is otherwise a tight and professional selection of smooth electro. |

| | Splendid Magazine reviews Asura: Lost Eden |
| | This odd tension exists throughout Asura's first album for the new TV Matters label. | | | Overall, Asura shape a compelling and ultimately rewarding album; its greatest fault is the less than fluid hybridization of sounds and genres. | | | Lost Eden introduces itself with a shimmering mist of ambient glaze and the sounds of an angel that would work perfectly as accompaniment to both the romantic coda of a summer blockbuster or a reflexively ironic moment from the David Lynch universe. |
