It is believed that Brahmaji had 5 wives
Savitri, Gayatri, Shraddha, Medha and Saraswati.
Why is Brahma ji not worshiped on earth and why does he have only one temple in the whole world?
First reason: Brahmaji had to perform a Yagya in Pushkar and at that time his wife Savitri was not with him. His wife Savitri could not reach the place of Yagya on time. The time for Yagya was passing. So Brahma married Gayatri, a local cowherd boy, and sat in the yagya. According to Jat history, this Gayatri Devi was a resident of Pushkar in Rajasthan, who was famous for being well versed in Vedas and was a Jat only.
Savitri arrived a little late. But seeing another woman in her place in the Yagya, she became mad with anger. He cursed Brahmaji that go, you will not be worshiped anywhere in this world. Seeing this form of Savitri, all the deities got scared. They requested him to take back his curse. When the anger cooled down, Savitri said that you will be worshiped only in Pushkar on this earth. If anyone else builds your temple, it will be destroyed.
Second reason: Despite being the main deity, they are worshiped very little. The second reason is that when Lord Shiva sent Vishnu and Brahma to fathom the universe, Brahma returned and said untrue words to Shiva.
Third reason: The body of world father Brahmaji was radiant and attractive. Seeing his attractive form, the celestial nymph named Mohini became lustful and she sat down near Brahmaji absorbed in samadhi. When Brahma ji's tandra was broken, he asked Mohini, Devi! Why are you sitting near me leaving heaven?
Mohini said, ' Oh Lord Brahma! My body and mind are falling in love with you. Please accept my love.'
Brahmaji started giving ethical knowledge to Mohini to remove her lust, but Mohini started wooing Brahmaji with sensual acts to make him attached to her. Brahmaji started remembering his favorite Shri Hari to avoid his temptation.
At the same time the Saptarishis arrived in Brahmalok. Seeing Mohini near Brahmaji, the seven sages asked him, why is this beautiful Apsara sitting with you? Brahma ji said, 'This Apsara was tired of dancing, she is sitting near me with the feeling of a daughter to rest.'
The Saptarishis understood the false language of Brahmaji with their yogic power and left from there smiling. Mohini got very angry after hearing such words of Brahmaji towards her. Mohini said, I wanted the fulfillment of my work desires from you and you gave me the status of a daughter. You are very proud of having control over your mind, that's why you rejected my love. If I love you with a true heart, then you will not be worshiped in the world.
