The functions of different parts of the body, symbols, and syllabes are explained as ''deva''. In [[Historical Vedic religion|Vedic religion]] we find the term used in a relatively restricted way; but even there we are not entitled to equate it with ''god'', but rather with ''supernatural powers'' in general.}}</ref>]]<!--

Dalam [[sastra Hindu]] pasca-periode Weda, seperti ''[[Purana]]'' dan ''[[Itihasa]]'', para dewa merupakan makhluk baik, sedangkan ''asura'' makhluk jahat. Dalam sejumlah karya sastra India Abad Pertengahan, para dewa juga disebut sebagai "sura", dan sifatnya bertolak belakang dengan saudara tiri mereka yang sama-sama sakti, yang disebut sebagai "asura".<ref name=ang>[https://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/40167/asura/40167rellinks/Related-Links Encyclopædia Britannica]</ref>
