Both might be true. While, Lord Sriman Narayana in
the form of Vasudeva, Sankarshana,etc. might be
creating and destroying at a more fundamental or
microscopic level, Brahma and Shiva, under the
direction of Lord Sriman Narayana might be creating at
the gross or macroscopic level. For instance, if we
need to produce a computer screen, we need the raw
material polymers, silicon, etc which are manufactured
by some companies, while other companies are simply
taking those raw materials and turning into polymer
sheets, glass, semiconductor chips, and other
materials. Yet, the final producer might be simply
assembling these as per the blue print. The final
producers are like the material bodies of jivathmas.
Lord Brahma and Shiva are like the manufacturers of
semiconductors and ready products like screens,
cables, etc. Lord Vasudeva, Sankarshana, etc. are like
the more fundamental manufacturers who are ptoducing
the raw materials.

Lord Sankarshana, etc. might be creating gravitational
forces, subatomic forces, and the energy, etc; Lord
Vasudeva, Pradhumna, etc. might be producing the
subatomic fundamental particles from spiritual
material through their maya. Lord Brahma is simply
using these particles, and through the energy and
forces might be molding them into living material.
Destruction probably proceeds at microscopic
fundamental level and also macroscopic or gross
levels. However, Lord Brhma and Lord Siva both emnated
from Lord Sriman Narayana and perform the creation and
destruction tasks at the macroscpic levels. Thus there
is no conflict between Pancharathra Agama and the
Puranas, and infact they are complimentary to each
other.

As explained in Srimad Bhagavatham, Lord Brahma and
Lord Siva are under the Maya of Lord Sriman Narayana.
Lord Krishna says "Mama Maya Durachaya." Brahma could
not overcome the maya of Lord Krishna when Brham stole
the cows and gopa balas from Sri Krishna. When Siva
wanted to see Mohuni avatharam, Lord Vishnu warned
that he (Siva) would not overcome his maya and did not
overcome Visnu-maya and ran after Mohini. Lord Sriman
Narayana is the ultimate cause "Narayna ParaBrahama
Sarva KArana KAranam." Lord Sriman Narayana is the
cause of all causes. 

With all glories to Lord Sriman Narayan and pranams to
Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Thridandi Ramanuja Sriman
Narayan Jeeyar Swamy varu, I remain,

Sincerely
Narender Reddy
