	This Vedic mantra clearly states, puruṣaṁ mahāntam.

However, when He comes, fools take Him to be an ordinary person (avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam ~~([[BG 9.11 (1972)\|BG 9.11]])~~). One who has no Vedic knowledge, who has not studied the Vedas from a bona fide spiritual master, does not know Kṛṣṇa. Therefore he is a mūḍha.

It is not possible to understand Kṛṣṇa simply by studying the Vedas perfectly. One must have the mercy of a devotee (yat-pādam). Unless one is favored by a devotee, he cannot understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Arjuna ~~also~~ confirms this in the Bhagavad-gītā ([[BG 10.14 (1972)\|BG 10.14]]): ~~“My~~ Lord, it is very difficult to understand Your personality.” The less intelligent class of men cannot understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead without being favored by His devotee.

==== PURPORT ====

<div class="purport">
As mentioned above, the Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad (3.19) states:

:apāṇi-pādo javano grahītā
:paśyaty acakṣuḥ sa śṛṇoty akarṇaḥ
:sa vetti vedyaṁ na ca tasyāsti vettā
:tam āhur agryaṁ puruṣaṁ mahāntam

This Vedic mantra clearly states, puruṣaṁ mahāntam. The word puruṣa means “person.” In the Bhagavad-gītā ([[BG 10.12-13 (1972)|BG 10.12]]) Arjuna confirms that this person is Kṛṣṇa when he addresses Kṛṣṇa as puruṣaṁ śāśvatam: “You are the original person.” Thus the puruṣaṁ mahāntam mentioned in the verse from the Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad is Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
