The Brahma Purana
THE BRAHMA PURANA In the forest known as naimisharanya. The sages (maharshis) arranged for a sacrifice (yajna) in this forest and the ceremony went on for twelve years. Naimisharanya forest was a wonderful place to arange sacrifices in. The climate was pleasant. There were trees full of flowers and fruit. There was no shortange of food in the forest, and animals, birds and sages lived there happily. Many sages ame to attend the sacrifice that had been arranged in naimisharanya. With them was Romaharshana (alternatively Lomaharshana). Vedavyasa’s disciple. Vedavyasa had instructed this disciple of his in the knowledge of the Puranas. The assembled sages worshipped the learned Romaharshana and said, Please tell us the stories of the Puranas. Who created the universe, who is its preserver and who will destroy it? Please instruct us in all these mysteries. Romaharshana replied, Many years ago, Daksha and the other sages had asked Brahma these very questions. I have learnt about Brahma’s replies from my guru (teacher) Vedvyasa. I will relate to you what I know. In the beginning , there was water everywhere and the brahman (the divine essence) slept on this water in the form of Vishnu. Since water is called nara and since ayana means a bed, Vishnu is known as Narayana. In the water there emerged a golden egg (anda). Brahma was born inside the egg. Since he created himself, he is called Svayambhu, born (bhu) by himself (svayam). For one whole year, Brahma lived inside the egg. He then split the egg into two and created heaven (svarga) and the earth (prithivi) from the two parts of the egg. -

Varaaha Avatar
Varaaha avatar Long ago there lived a demon named Hiranyaksha. Hiranyaksha was a mean asura. He wanted to take control of the heavens; he attacked Indra, king of the Gods and others. Even Brahma, the lord who blessed him with powers could not kill him. The Gods fearing Hiranyaksha’s attack took shelter in the caves of the mountain ranges on Earth. When he learnt that the Gods were hiding in Earth, Hiranyaksha forcefully entered Earth also. At this time Manu and his wife Shatarupa ruled over Earth (Bhu Devi). Manu was a wise king and the kingdom was prosperous. Hiranyaksha wanted to take control of the Earth from Manu, so he snatched Earth and drowned it in the ocean. Earth sank to the bottom of the ocean. Manu and Shatarupa fearing attack on their life, went to Brahma. Brahma decided to seek the help of Lord Vishnu. As Brahma meditated on Lord Vishnu, a tiny Boar came from his nostrils. It grew and grew till it was the size of a large Mountain. With a terrifying roar, Lord Vishnu as Varaaha (Boar) sniffed the air and being a boar, he was able to track the scent of Earth and took one mighty leap into the air and dived to the ocean bed in search of Earth. Meanwhile Hiranyaksha rushed to the seashore after hearing the terrifying roar. He came across Sage Narada, and Hiranyaksha asked him, "Do you know where Vishnu is?" Narada told him that Lord Vishnu was under the ocean rescuing Earth. Hiranyaksha charged towards the ocean bed. -
