Parjanya means Cloud that releases rain/rainfall. Rain/Rainfall is required for sustenance of living beings, for production of food grains, for vegetation etc...

In spiritual terms Parjanya is referred to the rain personified God. In Bhagawad Gita - Karma Yoga (3.14) Lord Sri Krishna says....

annād bhavanti bhūtāni
parjanyād anna-sambhavaḥ
yajñād bhavati parjanyo
yajñaḥ karma-samudbhavaḥ (BG 3.14)

From food are born the creatures;
from rain does food become possible.
By sacrificial act do the rains come to be and the
sacrifice comes about from action;

Clouds (ParJanya) are the generating force for the rains which, in turn are born out of sacrifice (Yagyna).

When sacrificial oblations are offered in fire in the prescribed manner, it reaches the Sun; from the Sun the rains are produced, food from the rains and thereafter the creatures”, thus, speak the scriptures;

For giving birth to vegetation etc. the clouds are known as PARJANYA; The actions come to be due to sacrifices and all actions flow from and towards Keshava (Lord Vishnu) who is established in SAcrifices. PARJANYA in one of the several thousand names/attributes of Lord Vishnu;

"Yagyabhrud yagyakrud yagyii yagyabhrug yagyasadhanah
Yagyanantakrud yagyaguhyam annam annaada eva cha"

Lord Vishnu is the protector and supporter of all Yagnas;
He is the one who is the creator of the sacrifice and the custom of Yagna;

He is the very purpose and objective of every Yagna;

He is the protector the one who enjoys and consumes everything offered in the Yagna;

He is contributory factor and the one to whom Yagna is the approach; the one who is the fruit of the Yagna; He is the secret and undercurrent of all Yagna;

PARJANYA is one of the DwadasaAadityas' and in the context of AdhikaMasa DAITYAARI naamaka ParamaAtma is antharyaami of PARJANYA.

Daitya + Ari; Daitya means those who are born to Diti wife of Sage Kasyapa (Kasyapa Prajapathi). They are called Daityas (Demons/Raakshasas). Ari means enemy and their enemy (Daanava Shatru) is Lord Sri Hari.

In Dwadasa Stothra, Aachaarya Sri Madhwa eulogizes Supreme God Vishnu as...

“Sookara roopaka Daanava Shathro……”
“Raaghava Raaghava Raakshasa Shathro….”

In all incarnations of Lord Vishnu main objective would be Dushta Sikshana; Sishta Rakshana and to uplift the Dharma.

This attribute of Lord Vishnu we find more prominently in Sri Raama-avathara and Sri Krishna-avathara. Right from the infant stage Lord Sri Krishna started eliminating the Demonic forces to begin with Poothana and ended with Kurukshethra war.

Kaama (lust, craze, desire), Krodha (anger, hatred), Lobha (greed, miserliness, narrow minded), Moha (delusory emotional attachment), Mada or Ahankara (pride, stubborn mindedness), Matsarya (envy, jealousy, show or vanity, and pride) are called Daitya lakshana (demonic characters).

These demonic characters are called Arishadvargas (negative passions) who are the six internal enemies of mankind. They are responsible for all kinds of difficult experiences in our lives. These negative characters prevent mankind from realizing the ultimate reality.

The remedy being total surrender to the Supreme God Vishnu who is PARJANYA who is DAITYAARI, the one Who helps us to overcome the weakness and protect us not only from external enemies (Daityas) but also from internal enemies (Arishad-Vargas);

Lord Vishnu is PARJANYA (Cloud) who releases us from the bondage of cycle of birth and death, the one who releases/showers HIs blessings on us like a Cloud burst extinguishing our Tapatraya, suffering…
