There exist among them desires and aspirations. They are capable of bestowing blessings and benefactions on others and of cursing others also. They are more powerful than human beings. The gods belong to tne Devyoni as human beings belong to the Manavyoni.

The one that is perfect is the Paramatma; and those that have great 'punya' but who are imperfect become heavenly beings, and we do not worship only the Paramatma who can save us.and by his grace we should become Paramatmas; we have to become perfect; we have to attain total deliverance from the aimless wanderings of the Samsar; and we should earn greater and greater spiritual prosperity. We should realize the soul by means of Dharma. By means
