Goddess responds

देव्युवाच

Goddess said (to Brahma)


अहो सुमहदाश्चर्यं वेदवक्ताऽपि विश्वकृत् |
महाज्ञानपरो भूत्वा विधाता किं वदत्ययम् || 33 ||


What a great surprise! Even the speaker of the Vedas, the creator of the universe, having become a great knower, what is this that the creator (Brahma) is speaking?

Mahagnyanapara is a pun. It could be maha-gnyanapara (above the great knowledge) or maha-agnyanapara (above the great ignorance). Asking for the supreme God to have moha is the height of *********.
