Chapter 7 verse 20
“Those, whose wisdom has been looted away by this or that desire, go to other celestial gods, following this or that norm, led by their own nature.”
Just as in a government, the prime minister/president is the head of government while there are other cabinet ministers who have lesser powers, so is the supreme Lord has ultimate powers in this universe. The other celestial gods such as Indra, Yama, Varuna, navagraha devatas etc., have limited powers gained by their own penance in the past. They are also not liberated from this cycle of samsara and hold titles at the will of supreme divine power of God-Paramatma. We tend to worship these celestial gods for our material desires to be fulfilled and don’t realize that surrendering to the Supreme takes care of all desires and eliminates them eventually. God gives you what you need and not what you want. He knows what is to be given to whom, when and where.
