## Purport
The greatest of everything is Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa states in the *Bhagavad-gītā* [[bg/15/15|(Bg. 15.15)]], *vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ:* "By all the *Vedas,* I am to be known.") In *Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam* it is said that the Absolute Truth is understood in three phases-namely, Brahman, Paramātmā and Bhagavān, the Supreme Personality of Godhead (*brahmeti paramātmeti bhagavān iti śabdyate*). Thus the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the last word in understanding the Absolute Truth, Brahman.
