Henotheism

Peculiar to stage of time, the Āryans were disposed to pay reverence to gods as supreme, standing
side by side, but at some circumstances only one is holding the highest position. It happened that
they choose the supreme gods like Indra, Varuṇa and Prajāpati. In this period they seemed to have

chosen Varuṇa as the most important or highest one among the three and all the gods. This is called
Henotheism, the faith in one supreme god.
