: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation´³²¹²µ²¹³Ù²õṛṣá¹i (जगतà¥à¤¸à¥ƒà¤·à¥à¤Ÿà¤¿) refers to “creator the worldsâ€� and is an epithet of BrahmÄ, according to the ÅšivapurÄṇa 2.2.14. Accordingly as BrahmÄ narrated to NÄrada:—“[...] On seeing the mother of the universe born of VÄ«riṇÄ�, Daká¹£a joined his palms in reverence, paid respects to her and eulogised her. [...] I bow to Thee, the great mother of the universe, the great Goddess, by whom formerly BrahmÄ had been directed to create the worlds (viz., ´³²¹²µ²¹³Ù²õṛṣá¹i) which he carried outâ€�.

At first five varieties of AjñÄna were created, viz., andhatÄmisra, tÄmisra, mahÄmoha, moha, and tamas. Ashamed of these sinful creations, BrahmÄ created seers like Sanaka, Sananda, etc. They also did not proceed with the work of creation as was desired. So BrahmÄ grew angry and down came Rudra from the midst of his eye-brows. He was assigned places and women. Finding his creation intolerable, BrahmÄ sent him away for penance, and produced ten mind-born sons, MaricÄ«, Atri and others, and a daughter SarasvatÄ«. Then came the Vedas and other literature. Further the Creator's body got into two halves—one SvÄyambhuva and the other ÅšatarÅ«pa. These were parents of two sons and three daughters. Their descendants filled up the whole of the earth. Another account of creation.*

It is all bliss, secret, omniscient, and facing everywhere. It generates the six-fold path (of the universe). It is all things, the place where death arises (as well as) the seed and womb of the universe. It is the abode of the mother, the secret energy. That current is the lord Akula who, in order to emanate the universe (Âá²¹²µ²¹³Ù²õṛṣá¹i), conceives his own imperishable Self to be Åšaktiâ€�.
