( R e d i r e c t e d f r o m T h u n d e r g o d s ) Thunderstorms are commonly depicted as the rage of the deity which is associated with it.
Polytheistic peoples from many cultures have postulated a thunder god , the personification or source of the forces of thunder and lightning ; a lightning god does not have a typical depiction, and will vary based on the culture. In Indo-European cultures, the thunder god is frequently known as the chief or King of the Gods , e.g. Indra in Hinduism , Zeus in Greek mythology , Zojz in Albanian mythology , and Perun in ancient Slavic religion .

In literature [ edit ]
The Hindu God Indra was the chief deity and at his prime during the Vedic period , where he was considered to be the supreme God.[24] [25] Rigveda , the first of the religious scriptures that comprise the Vedas .[26] Itihasas , appearing in both the Ramayana and Mahabharata . Although the importance of Indra has since been subsided in favor of other Gods in contemporary Hinduism, he is still venerated and worshipped.
In Greek mythology , the Elysian Fields , or the Elysian Plains, was the final resting places of the souls of the heroic and the virtuous, evolved from a designation of a place or person struck by lightning , enelysion, enelysios. [27] Zeus , the god of lightning, so "lightning-struck" could be saying that the person was blessed (struck) by Zeus (/lightning/fortune). Egyptologist Jan Assmann has also suggested that Greek Elysion may have instead been derived from the Egyptian term ialu iaru ), meaning "reeds," with specific reference to the "Reed fields " (Egyptian: sekhet iaru ialu ), a paradisiacal land of plenty where the dead hoped to spend eternity.[28]
