# Process of Universal Creation Having heard the informative elaborations on the yoga processes, Maharaja Pariksit asked several questions concerning the creation, maintenance and annihilation of the universes. Sukadeva Goswami offered heartfelt prayers to the Lord and responded by narrating a conversation between Narada Muni and Brahma, since the itinerant sage had made the same enquiries. When questioned about creation, Brahma, in natural humility, explained how the Lord provided the original ingredients of creation and then gave him the service of engineering the universe. He could not take full credit, as he was simply the secondary cause. Brahma then offered a technical explanation of the evolution of various elements – the three modes of material nature, aspects of sense perception and their corresponding sense organs, and the controlling deities behind our senses. Finally, he explained how the universes are created, and how aspects of the cosmos represent the different features of the Lord’s body. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
