Rising and falling again and again at the lotus feet of Lord Krsna
for a long time, Lord Brahma remembered over and over the
Lord’s greatness he had just seen.

PURPORT
As stated in one prayer,
Srutim apare smrtim itare
bharatam anye bhajantu bhava-bhitah
aham iha nandam vande
yasydlinde param brahma
“Let others study the Vedas, smrti and Mahabharata, fearing material
existence, but I shall worship Nanda Maharaja, in whose courtyard is
crawling the Supreme Brahman. Nanda Maharaja is so great that the
Parabrahman is crawling in his yard, and therefore I shall worship him.”
(Padyavali 126)

Brahma was falling down in ecstasy. Because of the presence of the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, who exactly resembled a human child,
Brahma was naturally astonished. Therefore with a faltering voice he
offered prayers, understanding that here was the Supreme Person.
