Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 10, Verse 24

And of priests, O son of Prithâ, know Me the chief, Brihaspati; of generals, I am Skanda; of bodies of water, I am the ocean.

What matters in each example here isn't the specific figure, it's the real quality that figure best reflects.

The text is upfront that even its own examples could shift, priest or general, what stays constant is the actual point being illustrated. Real opulence is shown as the substance behind these picks, not the picks themselves.
