I don't think i have made my self understood here, off course i said Human form has it top most value because it affords one to inquire about the reason for life, otherwise every living entity is struggling very hard to be happy in their own way. whatever body one has acquired is through their desires that is why i find my self not wanting to judge. In one sense we are all same,we should see all living entities "equally" because the paramatma is situated in all of their hearts, The Gita's message (vidya vinaya sampane, brahmane gavi hastini...) isn't that we should take philosophical lessons from the cow and then try to milk the brahmana. So all of us are evolved differently and we have different values.
Jai Shree Krishna
Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
