Lord Agni is the god of fire, is one of the most important deities of the Vedas, especially Rigveda. With the sole exception of Indra, more hymns are addressed to Agni deva than to any other deity. Agni is considered the mouth of the gods and goddesses, and the medium that transmits the offerings in a homa. He is conceptualized in the ancient Hindu scripts to exist on three levels, on earth like fire, in the atmosphere like lightning and in the sky like the sun. This triple presence links him as the messenger between the gods and human beings in Vedic thought.
