476 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 4, Ch. 11

A devotee completely surrenders unto the Supreme, and He reveals Him-
self by His causeless mercy. As stated in Bhagavad-gita, dadami buddhi-
yogam tam. The Lord says, “‘I give him intelligence.” What is that intelli-
gence? Yena mam upayanti te. He gives him the intelligence to cross over
the ocean of nescience and come back home, back to Godhead. In conclu-
sion, 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-gita 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 transcen-
dental literature under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master. Then
it is very easy to understand Krsna as He is.
