988:...So early on in Hinduism before the negative connotations was what distinguished the Asuras from the Devas was that the former (Asura) were gods of mankind, civilization, oaths, society, laws, moral structure and intellectual workings; whereas Devas were natural forces and spirits of the elements etc, wind, sky, rain and physical phenomenon: this is why Mitra & Varuna were Asuras & Devas both? This contrasts other Indo-European religions where possible cognates to Asuras, I am thinking the Norse Aesir but also the Zoroasterian deities, the Aesir were gods of law and contracts, government, order, sworn oaths and duty, dedication etc, whereas the other group of god, the vanir, were more nature spirits, fertility gods, etc. Early IE connections seems to point to that possible for Asuras too? If the Varuna article could be better sourced and clarified at that point, maybe that older distinction, if true, could be added and explained in detail here in this article. 2143:
already stated, this article its3elf about the conceptand not of any specific religious ideology, in its origin. See the revision before my addition, it also have a different and independent Hindu section and Buddhist section both. I've added, extra Buddhist info. No it was never conluded in the discssion, that Asura in Hinduism is primary topic. I and few others have also given you many points,why it can't be primary. No, it will have no confusion at all. There are various such articles in Knowledge, which covers points from various fields. Also, I've already added phrases like,"In Buddhist literature,","In Hindu scriptures,". Also there's seperate section for all those points which are not common. You last point do not justify for the article ofthe concept rather than the article of specific religious views. Earlier by me give equal weightage. Please, share your views. Let me know if you agree now. Thank You So Much.

contain more information about Hinduism. But that's not the case here, Asuras are equally important in both religions. No there is also Deva page, which is but diambiguation, also there none of the Hindu or Buddhist is primary, but I was earlier also thinking to drop there for proposal to have a broad-concept article there too. Upto this was only my views for your points.And this is my discussion point below, Why are you going in that direction, which is not related to the discussion. We are not here for discussing, which is primary, as already that move's discussion is over, so need to discuss primary at all. And please try to incorporate all views.

New editors are truly welcomed, In fact, it will help to reach the consensus very soon. But some editors are totally moving out of point of discussion. One last suggestion, please if you want to invite, then please invite editors having neutral opinions, which is recommended. But wait, does the first statement in your message does mean you agree now ?? 2503:

None of the discussion was started for this or none was point put forth on previous discussion, as you were the one disagreeing, hence you should have started. But I've started new discussion for this now. You are just reverting saying consensus consensus, Tell me reason for your revet and how can the edits degrade the article.

Just at least tell me the portion which I've removed..

Other than being very old religious texts of two groups which share an ancestral connection the two texts are not similar and the reader should be not be misled into thinking the similarity implied by the article is correct.
