Blavatsky, Helena Petrovna

Abhimanim. The name of Agni (fire) the “eldest son of Brahmâ”, in other words, the first element or Force produced in the universe at its evolution (the fire of creative desire). By his wife Swâhâ, Abhimânim had three sons (the fires) Pâvaka, Pavamâna and Suchi, and these had “forty‐five sons, who, with the original son of Brahmâ and his three descendants, constitute the forty‐ nine fires” of Occultism.
