Brahma is the Creator within the Trimurti, which is the trinity of supreme divinity that includes Vishnu and Shiva. Brahma was born from a golden egg and created the earth and all things on it. In later Hindu mythology, he is described as having come from a lotus that sprang from Vishnu’s navel. He is usually depicted as having four faces, symbolic of the four-square capacity expressed in the four Vedas, the four yugas, four stages of life, and so on. He is typically shown with four arms, holding an alms bowl, a bow, prayer beads, and a book.

Fluorite occurs in a variety of colors, or can be colorless. Among the mineral kingdom it exhibits one of the widest varities of colors. Impurities in the Fluorite cause its colorations. It is a very common mineral that occurs throughout the world and is the only mineral that large quantities of elemental fluorine can be extracted from. England has produced some of the best specimens of Fluorite, most notably from the Rogerly Mine.
