C release from the cycle of births and deaths
D material comforts and victory

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [D]

In the Rig Veda, Indra is one of the most prominent deities and is often invoked by the Rig Vedic people for material comforts, prosperity, and victory in battles. Indra is depicted as a powerful god associated with strength, bravery, and the ability to conquer enemies. He is praised for his prowess in warfare and his ability to provide rain and abundance to the people. The Rig Vedic hymns frequently call upon Indra to grant victory in battles, protect the community, and provide material blessings such as wealth, cattle, and abundance. While aspects of knowledge, life after death, and liberation from the cycle of births and deaths are also mentioned in the Rig Veda, the primary emphasis of invocations to Indra is on material comforts and victory.
