FAQs
‘Pitāmaha’ (“grandfather”) is a standard Purāṇic epithet for Brahmā, reflecting his role as progenitor of beings and patriarchal source of lineages in creation narratives.
In Purāṇic idiom, divine remembrance functions as efficacious will: a deity’s thought can serve as invocation, command, or immediate communication, indicating non-physical modes of action beyond ordinary speech or travel.
It signals escalation toward coordinated divine action: Śiva convenes Brahmā and the devas, a typical prelude to strategizing or witnessing key events (such as the emergence of Skanda or preparations for battle).
