So here, if we follow the Arjuna's process and if we try to understand as Arjuna understood, then the authority is there. It is not very, very difficult to understand who is authority. So sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vāṅ-manobhiḥ. Jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva san-mukharitām (SB 10.14.3). You have to find out that authority. That's all. That authority you have to find out and remain in your place and try to hear submissively everything, svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ (CC Madhya 17.136).
As soon as you become submissive and hear from authorities, then the whole thing will reveal within yourself. God is the always ready to be revealed to you. But how does He reveal? He reveals as soon as you become submissive, you become devotee, you become Kṛṣṇa conscious, you just follow the path traversed by the great mahājanas, great ācāryas. Then it is . . . everything is known.
Although He's not known even to the demigods, even to the great sages, he can be known to you at your home, ajita jito 'py asi, although He is unconquerable, if you adopt this process. So we have to try to adopt the process only. Otherwise, if you don't adopt the process, there is no alternative. You cannot know. Because greater personalities than us in the human society, the devas, the sura-gaṇāḥ—sura-gaṇāḥ means the demigods—they cannot know.
And if you follow this principle to understand the Supreme Lord, Personality of Godhead, then what will be the result? It is stated here:
- yo mām ajam anadiṁ ca
- vetti loka-maheśvaram
- asammūḍhaḥ sa martyeṣu
- sarva-pāpaiḥ pramucyate
- (BG 10.3)
Sarva-pāpaiḥ pramucyate. As soon as you understand thoroughly . . . you can understand thoroughly. This is the process.
