Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
catvāro vāsudevādyā nārāyaṇa-nṛsiṁhakau hayagrīvo mahākroḍo brahmā ceti navoditāḥ
“ ‘The nine personalities mentioned are Vāsudeva, Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna, Aniruddha, Nārāyaṇa, Nṛsiṁha, Hayagrīva, Varāha and Brahmā.’
Purport
This verse is found in the Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛta (1.451). The Brahmā mentioned herein is not a living entity. Sometimes, when there is a scarcity of living entities to take charge of Brahmā’s post, Mahā-Viṣṇu expands Himself as Lord Brahmā. This Brahmā is not considered to be a living entity; He is an expansion of Viṣṇu.
— A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
