Why isn't Brahma Worshipped?

In Hinduism, Lord Brahma is the first god of the Trinity (Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh).

He is the creator of the universe. But, he is not worshipped as Lord Vishnu and Shiva. There is only one temple dedicated to him, which is the Pushkar temple of Rajasthan. And many temples are dedicated to Vishnu and Shiva. There is no corner of India where there are no temples of Vishnu and Shiva. Brahma knowledge is considered the highest knowledge. All the penance, yoga, and meditation are performed for acquiring the Brahm knowledge. One side, people aspire to have Brahm-knowledge and another side, Lord Brahma is ignored. Why this contradicts?

It is said that along with the creation of the universe Brahma created a female deity known as Shatrupa, one who can acquire hundred forms. Shatarupa was so beautiful that Brahma became completely infatuated with her and stared at her wherever she went. This is not a divine quality to persuade his own creation like this. Shatarupa was embarrassed by this attention and intention and tried to escape his gaze, but in every direction that she moved, Brahma sprouted a new head until he had developed four. This frustrated her, and in order to escape herself from his gaze, the desperate Shatarupa jumped high in the sky. To continue his gaze, the fifth head was sprouted at the top of his other four heads. He showed his lordship on her. This unholy behavior and an extra attachment to the created things of Lord Brahma angered Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva admonished him and chopped his fifth head as a punishment for his unacceptable behavior of the creator towards his creation. Brahma was attached to the created things(temporary) by ignoring the soul(permanent). He became materialistic than spiritual. The resultant, Lord Shiva cursed Brahma not to be worshipped.

Another legend says that  there was competition between Brahma and Vishnu to prove who is greater between them, and who should be worshipped first. To resolve this issue Shiva asked Brahma and Vishnu to search for the ends in the shivlinga. Starting from the center Vishnu decided to find the end of the linga and Brahma decided to find the starting of the linga. They both travelled for quite some time but couldnt reach the start or the end of the linga. While returning back Brahma met Ketaki flower, that was kept on the top of the linga and it fell. This gave Brahma an idea and in order to win this competition, Lord Brahma spoke a lie, 'I have seen the starting of the linga and this flower is the proof of it". While lord Vishnu accepted that he has not seen the end.  On seeing this, Lord Shiva appeared and chopped the fifth head of Brahma and cursed him and the Ketaki flower not be worshipped.

These are the mythological reasons why Brahma is not worshiped. Now, Let us understand its logical reason. Whenever nature wants to manifest herself time to time, she chooses someone among us as an instrument. Nothing belongs to us whether it is created by us or by someone. Nothing can be created outside of nature. Therefore, every creation belongs to nature, not to someone. We are just a medium. You can create something, but its possession is not in your hand. Nature provides her shelter to everyone for a certain period of time. Showing unnecessary proprietary over it gives nothing but miseries, worries, tension, anxiety and suffering. That is what lord Brahma did after the creation of the universe and Shatarupa and started showing his possession over it. This is the quality of Jiva of low birth, not a person of a divine quality.Lord Brahma is highly attached to his creation. I have created this world, I am the owner of this world, everything belongs to me, everything should work according to me- this is the attitude of Lord Brahma. And when something does not work according to your thought, you become worried, stressed and tensed.

Another reason is – Lord Brahma is exhausted energy, Vishnu is active energy and Shiva is the passive energy. Lord Brahma`s work is done, he(the creation) is the past now. Vishnu(the maintainer) is the present and Shiva(the Destructor) is the future. People care for the present and the future, not the past. This psychology of people makes Lord Brahma to be ignored.

We do not worship or respect to a person, we respect and worship the quality, behavior, post, position and power of a person.
