Brahmā Does Not Claim Complete Knowledge
“Lord Brahmā said, ‘If someone says that he knows everything about Kṛṣṇa’s opulence, let him think that way. But as far as I am concerned, with my body and mind I consider it in this way.
What the purport teaches
- Lord Brahmā acknowledges that someone may claim to know everything about Kṛṣṇa’s opulence.
- He lets that person think that way rather than making the same claim himself.
- Brahmā introduces his own understanding, considered with his body and mind.
Try this today

Ask yourself
How can Brahmā’s attitude help me be more modest about what I understand?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
