The yaksha that appears in front of Indra, Vayu and Agni and teaches them that it is really Brahman that made the devas victorious must have been shiva. Because immediately after the yaksha vanishes Uma daugter of Himayavan appears in the same "ether" space as the yaksha, It cannot been sheer coincidence that Uma consort of Shiva appeared without the almighty... Any thoughts?

Uma here refers to the "maya-shakthi" of Brahman... I do not think that it refers to the consort of shiva...
