PURPORT

Because Brahma is almost on an equal footing with the Personality of Godhead, he is addressed here as the god of the demigods, and because he is addressed here as the god of the demigods, and because he is the secondary creator of this universe, he is addressed as the sustainer of the universe. He is the head of all the demigods, and therefore he is addressed here as the head jewel of the demigods.

He knows everyone's heart and everyone's intentions, and therefore he was requested to explain this incidence. Why was the pregnancy of Diti causing such anxieties all over the universe?
