नारद उवाच ।।
कथं ससर्ज ब्रह्मादीनादिदेवः पुरा विभुः ।।
तन्ममाख्याहि सनक सर्वज्ञोऽस्ति यतो भवान् ।। ३-१ ।।

श्रीसनक उवाचा ।।
नारायणोऽक्षरोऽनन्तः सर्वव्यापी निरञ्जनः ।।
तेनेदमखिलं व्याप्तं जगत्स्थावरजङ्गमम् ।। ३-२ ।।

आदिसर्गे महाविष्णुः स्वप्रकाशो जगन्मयः ।।
गुणभेदमधिष्ठाय मूर्त्तित्रिकमवासृजत् ।। ३-३ ।।

Mahavishnu, resorting to the three gunas created three forms.  It is
significant that even Vishnu, one among the Trimurti-s, is created along
with the other two.
(There are very similar verses in the Vishnu puranam too.)
