SKITVIKTIGA quotes mm.

The root of the misunderstanding is likely the very word “deity”, an unfortunate early English translation of Sanskrit “deva” and Tibetan word “Lha” that misses the mark. Yidam, or “enlightened heart being”, is closer to the Mahayana view of “deities.” Deva literally means “divine” while “lha” (pronounced hla) literally means “higher.” [3]

Generally, divine in Sanskrit and “higher” in Tibetan refers to the “higher self” not generally a “higher external self-aware being.” Gods entirely misses the mark, as in a self-aware autonomous external being. Deities in Buddhism can be viewed different ways, but the very basis of Buddhist thinking, particularly concepts of non-duality and self.

"When any two components or more come together, a new phenomenon emerges - nails and wood become a table; water and leaves become tea; fear, devotion, and a savior become God. This end product doesnt have an existence independent of its parts."

~ Most Venerable Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche

We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised.  I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation.

– Caius Petronius, Roman Consul, 66 A.D.
