PURPORT

The heart of Brahma was enlightened by the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

This is Vedic information given in the Svetasvatara Upanisad (6.18):

yo brahmanam vidadhati purvam

yo vai vedams ca prahinoti tasmai

tam ha devam atma-buddhi-prakasam

mumuksur vai saranam aham prapadye “Because I desire liberation, let me surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who first enlightened Lord Brahma in Vedic knowledge through Lord Brahma’s heart.

The Lord is the original source of all enlightenment and spiritual advancement.” In this connection one may also refer to Srimad-Bhagavatam

2.9.30-35, 11.14.3, 12.4.40 and 12.13.19.
