Brahma Sutra

#The Upanishads speak of the unenlightened men becoming objects of enjoyment to the gods:
"He who worships another god, thinking, "He is one and I am another", does not know. He is like an animal to the gods"
... Brahma Sutra Bhasya

I think this means, gods are pleased with such a one as this in the same way we are pleased with a loveable pet or the useful animal.
