Nymphs of Hindu mythology that were created during the Churning of the
Waters and now dance in heaven in front of Indra. They sometimes live in
banana and fig trees where passers by can hear them playing cymbals and
lutes. They are also companioned with the Gandharvas, the air spirits
of music. They give good fortune to those who engage in games of luck
but can cause derangement in those that hear their music by enticing
them with their smiles. They also live in arjuana trees and live among
the peacocks.
