Who came first Brahma Vishnu or Shiva?
The birth of these three Gods is a great mystery in itself. While many purans believe that God Brahma and God Vishnu were born from God Shiva, there is no hardcore evidence to prove the same.
How is Brahma Worshipped?
In the Katopanishad, Yama describes in detail the worship of the Supreme Brahman through fire sacrifice and explains its procedure. The sacred ‘agni’ for the yagna is produced by rubbing two ‘Arani’ fire sticks.
Is Brahma higher than Shiva?
The God in the form of Brahma will make creation, and in the form of Vishnu sustains it and at the end in the form of Lord Shiva devolves it. So, there is no difference between Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.
Why does Brahma not have a temple?
The Lord cursed Brahma that no one would ever pray to him. (This legend explains why there is hardly any Brahma temple of significance in India.) Lord Shiva also punished the Ketaki flower for testifying falsely and banned her from being used as an offering for any worship. Brahma temples are rare.
Why do we not pray to Brahma?
Lord Shiva admonished Brahma for demonstrating behaviour of an incestuous nature and chopped off his fifth head for ‘unholy’ behaviour. Since Brahma had distracted his mind from the soul and towards the cravings of the flesh, Shiva’s curse was that people should not worship Brahma.
Why is there no temple for Brahma?
Why Lord Shiva cursed Brahma not to be worshipped?
Lord Shiva cursed Brahma not to be worshipped. As per the second legend (in Shiv Purana), there was a competition between Brahma and Vishnu as to who is superior and who should be worshipped first. But Brahma adapted a wrong method in this competition, he spoke a lie and tried to trick Lord Vishnu.
Why does Brahma have so many temples but Vishnu and Shiva only one?
” Or even “Why Lord Brahma has only a few temples all across the world, but Vishnu and Shiva have tons?” Let’s debunk the reasons for it: Shiva Purana has it that there was one time when Brahma and Vishnu had an argument on who was the most powerful amongst the Trimurti. The argument went on and on until they asked Shiva to intervene.
Why can’t we worship Brahma in Hinduism?
Like many other religions, Hinduism too has a very vast record of history and legend. And one of the most interesting aspects of Hindu legends is that the worship of the creator God Brahma is largely prohibited for the followers. Well, Lord Brahma has been a predominant God in the Hindu pantheon as per the concept of God in Hinduism.
Who is Lord Brahma and why is he important?
Lord Brahma is the first member of the Brahmanical triad, Vishnu being the second and Shiva, the third.

An individual’s subtle body is constituted of his mind and intellect, that is, his entire thoughts.
