    1 The Supreme Being, the Creator, the first deity of the sacred Hindu Trinity, to whom is en- trusted the work of creating the world. [The accounts of the creation of the world differ in many respects; but, according to Manu Smṛiti, the universe was enveloped in darkness, and the self-existent Lord manifested himself dispelling the gloom. He first created the waters and deposited in them a seed. This seed became a golden egg, in which he himself was born as Brahmā-- the progenitor of all the worlds. Then the Lord divided the egg into two parts, with which he constructed heaven and earth. He then created the ten Prajāpatis or mind-born sons who completed the work of creation. According to another account (Rāmāyaṇa) Brahmā sprang from ether; from him was descended marīchi, and his son was Kaśyapa. From Kaśyapa sprang Vivasvata, and Manu sprang from him. Thus Manu was the procreator of all human beings. According to a third account, the Supreme deity, after dividing the golden egg, separated himself into two parts, male and female, from which sprang Virāj and from him Manu; cf. Ku.2.7. and Ms.1.32 et seq. Mythologically Brahman is represented as being born in a lotus which sprang from the navel of Viṣṇu, and as creating the world by an illicit connection with his own daughter Sarasvatī. Brahman had originally five heads, but one of them was cut down by Śiva with the ring-finger or burnt down by the fire from his third eye. His vehicle is a swan. He has numerous epithets, most of which have reference to his birth, in a lotus.]

    Бесстрашный, самонадеянный, гордый богач превратился в банкира средней руки, трепещущего при всяком повышении и понижении бумаг. (А. Чехов, Пари) — The fearless self-confident, proud millionaire had become a second-rate banker, who trembled at every rise or fall of the market.

    Он сердился, он давно разгадал ту распространённую категорию художников средней руки, для которых искусство служило средством занимать место в обществе, не принадлежащее им по праву. (Л. Леонов, Дорога на океан) — He was angry; he had long since made up his mind about the numerous group of mediocre artists for whom art is a means of attaining a social position to which they are not entitled.
