Sri Narada Meets Lord Brahma in Sathya Loka

Brahma is the god of creation. He lives in Sathya Loka. Narada is His son. He is a great devotee of Sri Narayana, whose name will ever be dancing on his lips. He has free access to all fourteen lokas. He will always be moving from one place to another, carrying some sensational news, thus creating troubles and quarrels between Gods, Devas, Asuras, Sages, etc. He is popularly known as 'Kalahapriya.' Such troubles will ultimately end in universal good. This way, he aids in the maintenance of Dharma. One day Brahma was seated on his lotus seat. By his side was his consort, Saraswathi, playing on the veena. The assembly was attended by Indira, Dikpala-kas, the Sun God, Navagrahas, Saptha Rishis, and others. They were present there in their usual routine to have Darshan of the creator and take His directions. It was at that time that Narada entered the Sathya Loka chanting the hymns of Narayana. He saluted his parents, Saraswathi and Brahma, and after getting their blessings occupied the seat offered

Narada said to Brahma: "Father, after the Krishna avatar, Sri Hari did not go to Bhooloka again. Hence, Bhooloka has become a hell. People have gone fearless. Lawlessness prevails there. 'Might is right' is isthe order of the day. The innocent are teased by the wicked. The time has come when God is to appear again on earth and restore Dharma."

Brahma said, "Dear child, you will always be going round the three lokas. There are unknown to you. You can, by the mere thought of it, create a problem and solve it, too. I need not teach you anything. Why then ask me? So, do carry on with what is necessary. I wish you all success. Narada took leave of his father and proceeded to Bhooloka. All the devas were pleased.
