Brahma

### Offspring

**Brahma** is a pivotal deity worshiped by the Hindus, often referred to as the creator of the universe. He is a fundamental member of the trinity of Devas known as the Trimurti, which also includes Vishnu, the Preserver, and Shiva, the Destroyer. Together, these three deities represent the cosmic functions of creation, preservation, and destruction, respectively, forming the core aspects of the divine. Brahma's role as the creator emphasizes his significance in the grand scheme.

## Overview

Brahma's divine vehicle, or vahana, is the sacred goose known as Hamsa. He possesses the extraordinary ability to bestow numerous blessings upon not only gods and humans but also the demon-like beings known as Asuras. Furthermore, Brahma is credited with the creation of a multitude of entities and objects. Intriguingly, even demons themselves are said to have originated from different parts of his divine body. To illustrate, the Rakshasa race is believed to have been brought into existence from Brahma's very foot.

## Appearance

Brahma is conventionally portrayed as having four faces and four arms. Each of his faces is oriented towards a cardinal direction. Instead of weapons, his hands bear emblems of knowledge and creation. In one hand, he cradles the sacred Vedas, while in the second, he clasps a mala (rosary beads) signifying time. The third hand wields a ladle, symbolizing the means to nourish the sacrificial fire, and the fourth holds a vessel with water, representing the origin of all creation. Credited with the creation of the four Vedas, his four mouths are pivotal in this cosmic act. Often depicted with a white beard, it signifies his profound sage-like wisdom and experience.

## Personality

Being one of the Primeval Deities, Brahma is a firm believer and enforcer of divine law, justice, order, and balance. He, along with Shiva and Vishnu maintain the cosmic order, along with the other gods. Brahma is considered the mature one, he is a benevolent creator deity, as he creates things out of the blue for the well being of others, mainly the lives of the mortals and his worshippers. Like Shiva, Brahma holds a high contempt and hates evil, senseless wars, chaos, and disorder, he doesn't tolerate it nor does he abide by it. He also claims that promises are made to determine an individual's personality and soul, so it makes sense why he also hates oath-breakers.

Brahma is divinely wise, showing great insights to people, and knowledgeable when it comes to mythological things and events like the War in Heaven. He is well respected for his compassion and merciful natures, but can be a strict adherent towards the celestial laws, decreed by God. He values life in general, and being the Creator, he makes sure that his creations are not flawed. Being an elderly deity, Brahma is not as arrogant or as proud as other Deva Deities can be. As he appear to be respectful, humble, and a heart warming god, but when disrespected or angered enough, his anger and voice is considered more thunderous and terrifying than Indra, the king of the gods himself.

Like Shiva and Vishnu, they hold God and Brahman in high regard and respect, as they always mentioned their names with great reverence.

## Myths and Legends

Brahma is a figure originating from the *Vedas* and a major deity in Hinduism. While still important in his own right, by the seventh century he started to lose significance. This wasn't helped by the fact he was already being overshadowed by other gods like Vishnu, Shiva, and Mahadevi; being demoted to the role of a "secondary creator" who was created by another deity.

The name "Brahma" comes from the Sanskrit word ब्रह्मन् or "to swell, expand, grow, enlarge.") The term is also used for the "Brahman" concept found in various south Asian religions.

Brahma is also found in various forms of Chinese Buddhism as one of the twenty devas.
