In [[Hinduism]], the [[god]] [[Brahma]] created 16 sons and 1 daughter from his mind, these [[rishi]]s, or [[wikt:sage#Noun|sage]]s were also known as [[prajapati]]. These children are not born through natural process. As Brahma is considered their father, [[Saraswati]], Brahma&#039;s wife, is considered their namesake mother. According to the &#039;&#039;[[Bhagavata Purana]]&#039;&#039;, their names are: [[Angiras (sage)]], [[Atri]], [[Pulastya]], [[Marichi]], [[Pulaha]], [[Kratu]], [[Bhrigu]], [[Vashistha]], [[Daksha]], [[Narada]], [[Chitragupta]], The [[Four Kumaras]], Kardama Muni, [[Himavat|Himalaya]] and [[Shatarupa]].&lt;ref name=&quot;PlukkerZanten1993&quot;&gt;{{cite book|author1=D.
