Purport

Lord Brahmā was waiting for the austerities performed by Hiraṇyakaśipu to mature so that he could go there and offer benedictions according to Hiraṇyakaśipu’s desire. Now, taking the opportunity of being accompanied by all the demigods and great saintly persons, Brahmā went there to award him the benediction he desired.

Personal Guidance
Brahmā, accompanied by Bhṛgu, Dakṣa, and other sages, goes immediately to Hiraṇyakaśipu — not to refuse him but to grant matured austerity its due. The cosmic order rewards even misdirected effort up to a point. Know that grace may take forms you fear.
Reflection Questions
  • What 'reward' have you received whose form you did not initially recognize as grace?
  • Where is the cosmic order honoring effort of yours that you have not yet understood?
