Brahma Prayers
Brahma is the creator god in Hinduism, forming part of the Trimurti (Hindu trinity) along with Vishnu (the preserver) and Shiva (the destroyer). He is responsible for the creation of the universe and all beings within it. Brahma is traditionally depicted with four heads, each facing a cardinal direction, symbolizing his omnipresence and his creation of the four Vedas. He holds a rosary (mala) for counting time and creation, a water pot (kamandalu) symbolizing the primeval waters from which creation emerges, a scepter, and the Vedas themselves. His mount is a Hamsa (swan), which symbolizes discrimination and purity. Unlike Vishnu and Shiva, Brahma is not widely worshipped today, primarily because his role as creator is considered complete. However, he is revered for his significant role in the cosmic cycle and as the source of all knowledge and the Vedas.
