Thưa cha, hành động mà cha đang định làm đây chưa từng được thực hiện bởi bất kỳ vị Brahma nào trước đây, hay bất kỳ ai khác trong các kiếp quá khứ, và cũng sẽ không ai dám làm trong tương lai.

Brahmā, the living entity who is the most pious and spiritually elevated, is entrusted with a post next to that of the Personality of Godhead.
