Brahma is the
Hindu creator god, and one of the
Trimurti, the three principal
Hindu deities (all hatched from an
egg laid by
Ammavaru), the others being
Vishnu and
Siva. He is said to be a husband of
Aditi, and through her the father of
Daksha. He is also sometimes the husband of
Sarasvati. Brahma only occasionally interferes in the affairs of the gods, and even more rarely in mortal affairs. He did force
Soma to give
Tara back to her husband,
Brihaspati. He is considered the father of
Dharma and
Atri. Brahma lives in
Brahmapura, a city located on
Mt. Meru.
Brahma is an agent of Brahman, the Supreme Being[?] or Absolute[?] of Hinduism.
Brahma is traditionally depicted with four heads, faces and arms.
