Question 1: How old was Brahma when he was born. How old is he now?
Answer by Romapada Swami: The answer to that question should be very obvious. The soul of Brahma, of course, is eternal. But when any living entity is first born, their calculation of age begins from birth. Therefore, at the very beginning of Lord Brahma’s life, he is not even yet one year old.
As far as calculating the present age of Lord Brahma, we can calculate in this way. During this present day of Lord Brahma, we are now in the seventh Manu, namely Vaivasvata Manu. In each Manu’s reign, there are 71 yuga cycles which complete their cycle, and we are now in the 28th of those 71. Therefore, in this day of Brahma, it is something just before midday.
Question 2 There are no temples for Brahma as far as I know of. Why is it so?
Answer by Romapada Swami: This is because of some curse received by Lord Brahma that he would not be worshiped. However there is a famous temple of Lord Brahma in Puskar.
