About this item
When Lord Brahma heard the sound tapa, he tried to find the speaker, searching on all sides. But when he was unable to find anyone besides himself, he thought it wise to sit down firmly on his lotus seat and give his attention to the execution of penance, as he had been instructed.
Lord Brahma underwent penances for one thousand years by the calculation ofthe demigods. Thus he controlled his mind and senses as a great lesson for the living entities.
By reciting the mantra of the Lord and meditating on the transcendental form of the Lord in the spiritual world, Brahma at last heard the sound of Sri Krishna's flute. As the sound entered his eight ears, it came out of his mouths as the transcendental Gayatri mantra. In this way Brahma was initiated with all the Vedic knowledge and came to understand who he was and how he was to engage himself in creation of this universe.
