[Paramananda das]

Lord Vamanadev does not appear in every material Universe He appeared in the one we are in !

taṁ vaṭuṁ vāmanaṁ dṛṣṭvā

modamānā maharṣayaḥ

karmāṇi kārayām āsuḥ

puraskṛtya prajāpatim

When the great sages saw the Lord as the brahmacārī-dwarfVāmana, they were certainly very pleased. Thus they placed before them Kaśyapa Muni, the Prajāpati, and performed all the ritualistic ceremonies, such as the birthday ceremony.

According to Vedic civilization, when a child is born in the family of abrāhmaṇa, the birthday ceremony, known as jāta-karma, is first performed, and then other ceremonies are also gradually performed. But when this vāmana-rūpa appeared in the form of a vaṭu, or brahmacārī, His sacred thread ceremony was also performed immediately.

LORD Vamanadev is given a brahmin initiation at His transcendental birth cermony and donations offered to him,being the "Supreme Brahmana"

SB 8.18.14: At the sacred thread ceremony of Vāmanadeva, the sun-god personally uttered the Gāyatrī mantra, Bṛhaspatioffered the sacred thread, and Kaśyapa Muni offered a straw belt.

SB 8.18.15: Mother earth gave Him a deerskin, and the demigod of the moon, who is the king of the forest, gave Him abrahma-daṇḍa [the rod of a brahmacārī]. His mother, Aditi, gave Him cloth for underwear, and the deity presiding over the heavenly kingdom offered Him an umbrella.

SB 8.18.16: O King, Lord Brahmā offered a waterpot to the inexhaustible Supreme Personality of Godhead, the seven sages offered Him kuśa grass, and mother Sarasvatī gave Him a string of Rudrākṣa beads.

SB 8.18.17: When Vāmanadeva had thus been given the sacred thread, Kuvera, King of the Yakṣas, gave Him a pot for begging alms, and mother Bhagavatī, the wife of Lord Śiva and most chaste mother of the entire universe, gave Him His first alms.

SB 8.18.18: Having thus been welcomed by everyone, Lord Vāmanadeva, the best of the brahmacārīs, exhibited His Brahman effulgence. Thus He surpassed in the beauty that entire assembly, which was filled with great saintly brāhmaṇas

In the Garga Samhita it is mentioned how the demigods went to Goloka Vrindavan in the Varaha Kalpa and asked Krsna to come to earth, one Gopi asked them from which universe they came from, well let me look it up" it is just much transcendental fun not to share"

This is from the 1 th canto of Garga Samhita chapter 2:
