Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**The great Vedic hymn<br> The Ṛg Veda (10.121) opens with the ‘Hiraṇyagarbha Sūkta’, one of the most ancient and profound cosmogonic hymns in world literature: ‘"Hiraṇyagarbhaḥ samavartatāgre bhūtasya jātaḥ patir eka āsīt / sa dādhāra pṛthivīm dyām utemāṃ kasmai devāya haviṣā vidhema"‘ — "In the beginning arose the Golden Embryo; having arisen, He was the sole lord of all that was born. He sustained this earth and this heaven — to which god shall we offer our oblation?" This hymn identifies Hiraṇyagarbha as the first cosmic being — the luminous creative principle — and the Vedāntic tradition identifies this with Viṣṇu. **Relation to Brahmā<br> In post-Vedic understanding, Hiraṇyagarbha is sometimes identified with Brahmā (the four-faced creator who emerges from Viṣṇu's navel-lotus). But at the deepest level, Viṣṇu IS Hiraṇyagarbha — the golden light-seed of creation that precedes even Brahmā.
