Sūta said: Even as Brahmā desirous of a son was meditating, a boy of great splendour manifested himself: He was adorned in red ornaments. He wore red garlands and clothes. His eyes were red. He was valorous. On seeing that noble boy in red clothes, Brahmā resorted to great meditation and understood him to be great Lord. Brahmā, of self control bowed to Vāmadeva. and contemplated on him. Thus eulogised by Brahmā, the supreme lord Śiva was delighted at heart. He addressed Brahmā thus.
