Brahma is one of the poems composed by Ralph Waldo Emerson, an American transcendentalist of the nineteenth century.
The central speaker of the poem is Brahma Himself,[4] who according to Hindu philosophers of India, is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent.
Emerson was the leader and other prominent members of this group were Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, Alcott and Elizabeth Peabody.
That the spirit is the only speaker signifies not only its absolute nature but also its sustaining power, upon which the existence of the entire universe metaphorically, the poem is based.
They reckon ill who leave me out; When me they fly, I am the wings; I am the doubter and the doubt, I am the hymn the Brahmin sings.
