[Hindu] Narada is the son of Brahma, a brahmarshi (the highest status for a saint/rishi in Indian mythology) and the favorite of Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh, all the devas and all noble people (including humans). He is one of the greatest scholars in Indian mythology. He also has a Purana (Narada Purana) named after him.
Narada (Sanskrit) One of the ten great rishis, mind-born sons of Brahma, or prajapatis; the most difficult to understand of the Vedic rishis because the most closely connected with occult doctrines.
"Narada is here, there, and everywhere; and yet, none of the Puranas gives the true characteristics of this great enemy of physical procreation. Whatever those characteristics may be in Hindu Esotericism, Narada -- who is called in Cis-Himalayan Occultism
Pesh-Hun, the 'Messenger,' or the Greek
Angelos -- is the sole confidant and the executor of the universal decrees of Karma and
adi-Budh a kind of active and ever incarnating logos, who leads and guides human affairs from the beginning to the end of the Kalpa.
" 'Pesh-Hun' is a general not a special Hindu possession. He is the mysterious guiding intelligent power, which gives the impulse to, and regulates the impetus of cycles, Kalpas and universal events. He is Karma's visible adjuster on a general scale; the
inspirer and the leader of the greatest heroes of this Manvantara. In the exoteric works he is referred to by some very uncomplimentary names; such as 'Kali-Karaka,'
strife-maker, 'Kapi-vaktra,'
monkey-faced, and even 'Pisuna,' the spy, though elsewhere he is called Deva-Brahma. . . .
