Images would be the correct option.
Because, the other option 'clay shapes' would not make the gods and goddesses fit into an ideal mould/paradigm. They just make the craftsman's modelling of clay into different shapes and sizes. 'Clay toys' would be mockery. Moreover, 'Reflections' are normally associated with a mirror or any similar reflector. Images mean 'cast into a specific mould' and hence would be the right answer.

Since idols are not there in the answers, image is correct. Idols are nothing but images. We will not call a plastic dog (doll) as shape. The plastic dog have the shape of dog but we will call it as image of a dog.

Shapes means triangle, square, rectangle. So idol is the correct answer, but from the option "image" is the word related to idol.

Anyways all the options are stationary, neither idol moves nor its reflection can, also the image & clay toys are stationary.

The gods and goddess are considered to be not existed in the world or virtual. So that those have no shapes but created images.

Answer is images because,
1. Reflection can't be worshiped.
2. Clay shape and toys are not following the sentence.

Ya you are right but here we can select only from given options. So images is the best portion for this.

Why the shapes is not correct. I think its E option if it not means clarify my doubt?

Shapes suit the answer as it includes all the forms in which God is worshipped.
