From astonishment, from the Tento Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam [10.13.56]:
“Then, by the power of the effulgence of those viṣṇu-mūrtis, Lord Brahmā, his eleven senses jolted by astonishment and stunned by transcendental bliss, became silent, just like a child's clay doll in the presence of the village Deity.”
