Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam
[Canto 4, Ch. 11]
A devotee completely surrenders unto the Supreme, and He reveals Himself by His causeless mercy. As stated in  Bhagavad-gītā ,  dadāmi buddhiyogaṁ tam . The Lord says, “I give him intelligence.” What is that intelligence?  Yena mām upayānti te . He gives him the intelligence to cross over the ocean of nescience and come back home, back to Godhead. In conclusion, the cause of all causes, the Absolute Truth or Supreme Brahman, cannot be understood by philosophical speculation, but He reveals Himself to His devotee because the devotee fully surrenders unto His lotus feet.  Bhagavad-gītā  is therefore to be accepted as a revealed scripture spoken by the Absolute Truth Himself when He descended to this planet. If any intelligent man wants to know what God is, he should study this transcendental literature under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master. Then it is very easy to understand  Kṛṣṇa  as He is.

na—never; ca—also; ete—all these; putraka—my dear son; bhrātuḥ—of your brother; hantāraḥ—killers; dhana-da—of Kuvera; anugāḥ—followers; visarga—of birth; ādānayoḥ—of death; tāta—my dear son; puṁsaḥ—of a living entity; daivam—the supreme; hi—certainly; kāraṇam—the cause.
TRANSLATION
My dear son, those Yakṣas, who are descendants of Kuvera, are not actually the killers of your brother; the birth and death of every living entity is caused by the Supreme, who is certainly the cause of all causes.
