He is brahmaṇyaḥ – ever devoted to upholding sacred knowledge and protecting those who live by it; brahmakṛt – the one who establishes and creates Brahmanical order; brahmā – the creator of the universe; brahma – the eternal, infinite reality itself; and brahmavivardhanaḥ – the one who nourishes and promotes the growth of spiritual wisdom and Vedic knowledge. He is brahmavit – the knower of the absolute truth; brāhmaṇaḥ – the essence of the spiritual priesthood and Vedic tradition; brahmī – ever united with the power of Brahma (creative intelligence); brahmajnaḥ – the one who realizes and reveals Brahman; and brāhmaṇapriyaḥ – the beloved of those who live a life of truth, austerity, and sacred learning.
