Slavic, Baltic and Norse "Nine world of the gods"(Ygdrasil)

[edit]

In Slavic "nine" is DEV(iet), and 9 represented before Christianity also a sacred, holy number of Gods or "world of gods", which is also Norse "Ygdrasil". Baltic and Slavic calendar knew also week of 9 days (and not 7). Woman in Slavic is "Deva or Devushka"(also a virgin), which contains "divno"(divine) or "godly" nature of women. This shows "northern" European&Russian (Aryan) influence among Khmer, Javanese, Balinese, Sundanese, Malay and Indonesian people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.182.91.242 (talk) 14:10, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Devata

[edit]

@Gotitbro: I've reverted your edit regarding the first line, because the term devata is not only in Hindu mythology, but also in Buddhist mythology. You can find them in many suttas across buddhist text. Also there is no another page for Devata in Buddhism.( there is page for Deva, but Both the terms are different). If you still think, I'd done something wrong, you can state your reason below. Please don't edit regarding this until we reach the final conclusion, since discussion is going on.JaMongKut (talk) 05:11, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
