'Mano-moolam Idam Jagat' (The mind is the basis of the cosmos). The mind pervades the entire universe. Hence, it signifies the Vishnu Principle.
Brahma is traditionally described as arising from the navel of Vishnu. It is from the mind the speech has come. 'Vaak' is the embodiment of Brahma. Hence, Brahma has, among other names 'Shabda Brahmamayee' sound (Shabda) as Brahma.
Thus, Eeshwara, Vishnu and Brahma symbolize the
