The word “Brahmotsavam” is a combination of two Sanskrit words “Brahma” and “Utsavam”. In one context, it is said that, Lord Brahma first performed this festival and hence Brahmotsavam is referred to as Festival celebrated by Brahma. In other context, the word Brahma refers to Grand or Huge and hence referred to as Grand Festival. As per the legend, It is believed that Lord “BRAHMA” will descend to the earth to conduct this festival and hence the festival got the name Brahmotsavam.
