Deities were full of all virtues.

In the copper age, they built temples to such elevated kings and queens and worshipped them. So, surely, they themselves must have been degraded. They say of themselves that they are degraded, lustful, angry and sinful whereas to the deities they say: You are full of all virtues. In Bharat, those who are degraded sing praise of those who are elevated. Degraded kings build temples to the elevated deities. They continue to sing praise of them, bow down to their idols, salute them and worship them.
