Mandala
Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Maharaj:
Even Lord Brahma, the creator of this universe and the original guru of our sampradaya, was astonished by the wonders of Krishna. Once when Krishna was living in Dvaraka, He heard that Lord Brahma, the creator of the universe, had come to see Him. Krishna asked His messenger, "Which Brahma?" When the messenger put this question to Brahma, Brahma thought, "Are there other Brahmas also? How is it possible?" He told the messenger, "You just inform Krishna that I am the father of the four Kumaras: the four-headed Brahma." The messenger went to Krishna with the news.
"Yes, show him in," Krishna said, knowing Brahma's temperament. Brahma went in, but he was astounded to see that so many Brahmas had gathered there from all of the universes in the creation. There were hundred-headed, thousand-headed, million-headed Brahmas - all present there. Because the whole creation is based on Krishna's hypnotism, the four-headed Brahma could see Krishna and all those other Brahmas, but the other Brahmas could not see each other. Each one of them saw only Krishna. Each one of them thought, "Krishna has come in my universe and called for me out of some necessity." But the Brahma of this universe could see everything because he had inquired, 'Which Brahma?' What is the meaning of 'Which Brahma?' Are there any otherBrahmas? I wonder...." In this way, Lord Brahma, the creator of the universe, was baffled by the wonderful ways of Krishna.
