| Vishnu came to his
rescue in the form of a fish and gave him courage to go up the stern and sit on the lotus.
At this Brahma returned to the lotus and remained seated. Vishnu took the form of a swan
floating over the eternal deluge and appeared before him and told him: "You are the
son of Hari the Lord the Creator." Thereafter Brahma started reciting the name of
Hari and started meditation. In a previous age,
Vishnu bad appeared in the Win of Hayagriva and taught Brahma the Pranava Mantra, Om, the
very origin of sound. Brahma combined the Pranava Mantra with Hari and went on reciting
Hari Om. Years passed and Mantra Siddhi (Mastery over the mantra) was attained when the
desire to know the subtle meaning of Hari Om and Bhoorbhuvahuvah Om arose in his mind.
