這組神靈在《Rig Veda》中很突出，有三十三首讚美詩是專門寫給他們的，七首是寫給因陀羅的，還有一首寫給阿耆尼和Prsni的（vi.54） 。他們組成一個隊伍（ganá，sárdhas），僅以複數形式提及。他們的人數是3*60或3*7。他們是 Rudra（ii.33）和 Prsni 的兒子，Prsni 是一頭牛（可能代表斑駁的風暴雲）。據說，他們是風神Vayu由在天上誕生的，被稱為天子。但它們也被稱為自生的。他們是同年齡、同心、同出生地、同住處的兄弟。它們長在地上、空中、天上，或居住在三層天上。女神羅達西（Rodasi）總是與他們聯繫在一起被提及。她站在他們車上的旁邊，因此似乎被視為他們的新娘。人們常提到Maruts的光彩：它們金黃、紅潤、像火焰一樣閃閃發光，而且是自發光的。它們經常與閃電聯繫在一起：RV 中 vidyút 的所有五種化合物。幾乎完全是對祂它們的描述。他們的長矛代表閃電，正如他們的綽號 rsti-vidyut 閃電矛所表明的那樣。他們也有金斧頭。他們有時會攜帶弓箭，但這一特徵可能是從他們的父親Rudra(樓陀羅)那裡借來的。他們戴著花圈、金色斗篷、金色飾物和金色頭盔。臂環和腳鍊 (khadí) 是他們所特有的。他們乘坐的車閃爍著閃電的光芒，牽引著的駿馬（通常是女性），這些駿馬是紅色的或黃褐色的，有斑點，速度如思想那麼快。他們偉大而強大；年輕不老；無塵、兇猛、像獅子一樣可怕，但也像小孩或牛犢一樣頑皮。他們發出的、經常被提及的噪音是雷聲和風的咆哮。它們使山脈震動，使兩個世界顫抖；它們撕裂樹木，並像野像一樣吞噬森林。他們的主要活動之一就是降雨：他們用雨水遮住太陽的眼睛；下雨時，他們用雲製造黑暗；他們使天桶和山間的溪流傾瀉而出。它們流下的水常常與雷暴有著明顯的關聯。他們的雨通常被形像地稱為牛奶、酥油或蜂蜜。它們避免熱，但也驅散黑暗，產生光明，並為太陽準備一條道路。

Offer, Nodhas, earnest praise to the company of the Maruts, the senders of rain and ripeners of fruit, deserving of adoration. Composed, and with folded hands, I utter the praises conceived in my mind, which are efficacious in sacred rites, (and flow rreadily) as the waters.
Nodhas(喬逹摩之子)，向Maruts的同伴致以誠摯的讚美，他們是雨水的使者和果實的成熟者，值得崇拜。我平靜地，雙手合十，說出心中所想的讚美，這些讚美在神聖的儀式中是如法的，就像水一樣慢慢地流淌。
