This is about a conversation between Brahma , Prakruthi or Maaya, Sanat kumaaraas and Saptharshis before the actual "srushti" or creation of ordinary humans. Earth is already formed from the Pancha bhootaas. It is important to note that Vishnu Bhagavan did not take part in this conversation. After he created Maaya and Brahma, he wanted to be only a witness.
So Brahma told Maaya and others: "I am going to create the first couple by dividing myself into two and then continue creation of men and women through them. Vishnu Bhagavan's chaithanyam or power will give praanan or life to them and He will stay as witness for their actions. Now I do not want them to know the source of their power until they search for it through intense devotion and penance. Bhagavan gave me permission to hide Him where I think is the best place. So where can I hide that Paramaatma chaithanyam? What is your opinion?"
So one of the saptharshis said: "what if we hide Him at the top of the Himalya mountain"? Brahma said that they would find Him with out much effort of their mind. It needs only physical effort. Then another Rishi suggested to hide Him in the ocean. Brahma was not happy with that suggestion also.
"What if we we hide in the moon or other planets"? asked another Rishi. Brahma told them that they would go to the moon also with the help of complicated machines, take images and show it to everybody else. He continued: "We have to hide in a place where each one can reach only with one's own effort. I do not want any proxy in the spiritual world".
All the four Sanat Kumaraas said in one voice: "Dear father Brahmadeva, there is only one place you can hide the Eternal Truth or God where they would never look for. That place is with in them- in their mind! Very few will venture to look in to themselves and out of those, few with determination, renunciation and commitment will realize the truth".
Brahma was convinced and hid the Paramatma chaithanyam in every one of his creation to be realized by each one by their own effort in one life or in several thousands and thousands of life!
