Shanti Upayas for your own army Sri Narpati claims that a person who understands and uses all these strengths can even defeat the king who is as powerful as Indra*. Everything will be possible for that person. Commentator: Please note that several strengths mentioned in these shlokas are very sacred and powerful. It takes time to fully comprehend these powers. Moreover these powers are shared only through Guru shishya parampara. These techniques are not shared with anybody. A teacher will only impart this knowledge when he acknowledges that his student is humble and will not misuse this power. *Indra is mentioned in many classics and puranas. Indra is referred as King of Devatas. Indra is a word which refers to Indriya or sensory organs. Indra enjoys heavenly pleasures and it actually means our happiness and joy derived from maya. You can conquer Indra means; you can conquer all your desires, and become an Indrajit or Yogi.
