Lord Brahma
# The Creator
of the universe.
# He is the first member of the Hindu Trinity that also
includes Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva.
# His divine consort is Saraswati, the
Goddess of learning and knowledge. Brahma is a four-faced and four-armed deity.The four faces represent the sacred knowledge of the four Vedas (Rig, Yajur, Sama, and Atharva).
The four hands represent
the four aspects of human personality: mind (back right hand), intellect
(back left hand), ego (front right hand), and the empirical self or conditioned
consciousness (front left hand). He carries a rosary in the upper right hand, a book in the upper left hand,
a kamandalu (water pot) in the lower left hand, and bestows grace with
His lower right hand.
Brahma uses
the swan as a vehicle.
