When disorder becomes universal, higher wisdom/authority is invoked to restrain destructive forces. Brahmā represents the principle of cosmic order (niyati) acting through counsel rather than brute force.
Though Brahmā is central to sarga themes generally, this verse itself is narrative action, not a creation account; it supports the Purāṇa’s theological storytelling.
Brahmā ‘arriving with the gods’ symbolizes the reassembly of higher faculties (discernment, restraint, harmony) when the psyche/world is overwhelmed by fear.
