According to Dvaita, there are three categories. Jada, Jeeva and Ishwara.

Now Ishwara is Narayana. What are other Gods or Devathas? Like Lakshmi, Brahma, Saraswathi, Rudra, Devi, Indra, Surya etc etc

Are these Jeevatmas, if so are these Mukthathmas or Bandhatmas?, If these are Bandhatmas where will they go after Mukthi?

Or are these Avathara roopas like Rama, Krishna and Vishnu (One for the Adityas, A form of Narayana) or Amsha Roopas like Parashurama and Kapila etc etc

Please if you can give references it will be helpful.
