TRANSLATION
“Actually it is very difficult to ascertain the number of universes. Every uni-
verse has its separate Lord Brahma and Lord Siva, who are known as perma-
nent governors. Therefore there is also no counting of them.
PURPORT
Lord Brahma and Lord Siva are called cira-loka-pala, permanent governors. This
means that they govern the affairs of the universe from the beginning of the crea-
tion to the end. In the next creation, the same living entities may not be present,
but because Brahma and Siva are existing from the beginning to the end, they are
called cira-loka-pala, permanent governors. Loka-pala means “predominating
deities.” There are eight predominating deities of the prominent heavenly planets,
and they are Indra, Agni, Yama, Varuna, Nirrti, Vayu, Kuvera and Siva.
