The setup of a teaching parable. The gods receive a real victory from Brahman, but immediately appropriate the glory to themselves. The ego's first move: take credit for what was given.
कहा जाता है कि ब्रह्म ने देवताओं के लिए विजय प्राप्त की। उस विजय में देवता गर्व करने लगे। वे सोचने लगे — "यह विजय हमारी ही है, यह महिमा हमारी ही है।"

कहा जाता है कि ब्रह्म ने देवताओं के लिए विजय प्राप्त की। सुरक्षित लगाव और श्रद्धा तनाव-प्रतिक्रिया को घटाते हैं: शरीर खतरे की तैयारी छोड़कर स्थिर होता है। यह पंक्ति उसी आश्रय को अपना विषय बनाती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
