Commenting on this verse, ÅšrÄ«la MadhvÄcÄrya has quoted the NÄrada PurÄṇa as follows: “From Hiraṇyagarbha, BrahmÄ, comes the second creation of this universe, but the universe is primarily created by Viṣṇu Himself. Viṣṇu is thus the primary creator, and four-headed BrahmÄ is merely the secondary creator.â€
