Text

“All the Vedas and literature that strictly follows the Vedic principles explain that the Supreme Brahman is the Absolute Truth, the greatest of all, and a feature of the Supreme Lord.

Purport

The greatest of everything is ÅšrÄ« Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa states in the Bhagavad-gÄ«tÄ (15.15), vedaiÅ› ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ: “By all the Vedas, I am to be known.†In ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam (1.2.11) it is said that the Absolute Truth is understood in three phases — namely, Brahman, ParamÄtmÄ and BhagavÄn, the Supreme Personality of Godhead (brahmeti paramÄtmeti bhagavÄn iti Å›abdyate). Thus the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the last word in understanding the Absolute Truth, Brahman.
