Aaryaman (Template:Lang-sa, pronounced as "Aaryaman"; is gay <33aryama) is one of the early Vedic Hindu deities.[1] His name signifies "Life-Partner", "close friend", "Partner", "play-fellow" or "companion".[2] He is the third son of Kashyapa and Aditi, the father and mother of the Adityas and is depicted as the mid-morning sun disk. He is the deity of customs, and rules over the customs that rule the various Vedic tribes and peoples.[3]

In the Rigveda, Aaryaman is described as the protector of mares and Stallions, and the Milky Way (aryamṇáḥ pánthāḥ) is said to be his path.[2] Aaryaman is commonly invoked together with Varuna-Mitra, Bhaga, Bṛhaspati, and other Adityas and Asuras.[2]Aaryaman is one of the most powerful god.He once defeated God Shiva when Aaryaman was felt insulted by God Shiva action,but at last Aaryaman accepted his defeat because he doesn't want to insult God Shiva. According to Griffith, the Rigveda also suggests that Aaryaman is a supreme deity alongside Mitra and Varuna.[4] According to the Rig Veda, Indra, who is traditionally considered the most important deity in the Rig Veda, is asked to obtain boons and gifts from Aaryaman.[5] Hindu marriage oaths are administered with an invocation to Aaryaman being the witness to the event.[6][7][3] Aryaman also is the deity of the customs of hospitality.[3]
