Brahmā (the lord of created beings).
The self-possessed creator gave them his own human form. On seeing the Manus, those who had been created earlier — the demigods, the Gandharvas and so on — applauded Brahmā, the lord of the universe.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
Brahmā gave to Manu his own human form. Those who were created previously glanced at Manu and began to praise Brahmā. Brahmā gave up that body (puram) in the form of a human, and Manu accepted it.
