This must not be confused with the numerous "devas". "" may be roughly translated into English as deity, demigod or angel, and can describe any celestial being or thing that is of high excellence and thus is venerable. The word is cognate to Latin "deus" for "god". The misconception of 330 million devas is commonly objected to by Hindu scholars. The description of 33 "koti" (10 million, crore in Hindi) devas is a misunderstanding. The word "koti" in Sanskrit translates to 'type' and not '10 million'. So the actual translation is 33 types and not 330 million devas. Ishvara as a personal form of God is worshiped and not the 33 devas. The concept of 33 devas is perhaps related to the geometry of the universe.
