	The conception of God and the conception of the Absolute Truth are not on the same level. Srimad Bhagwat hits on the target of the Absolute Truth. Conception of God means the controller whereas the conception of Absolute Truth means the Summum Bonum or the Ultimate Source of all Energies. There is no two opinions about the personal feature of God because He is controller. A controller cannot be an impersonal feature. Modernised Government specially democratic Government is impersonal to some extent but at the ultimate issue the chief executive head is a Person and the impersonal feature of Government becomes subordinate to such Personal feature of the Government. So whenever we speak something of control over others, we must have to bring in the Personal feature without any doubt. There may be many Gods because there are different controllers in different parts of management. According to the statement of the Bhagwat Geeta any controller who has got some specific power extra ordinary than others is called a bibhutimat satwa ([[BG 10.41]]) or controller empowered by the Lord. There are many bibhutimat satwas, controllers or Gods with different specific powers but the Absolute Truth is one without a second and the '''Srimad Bhagwatam''' designates the Absolute Truth or the '''Summum Bonum''' as the Param Satyam. Srimad Bhagwatam i. e. the Author of the book at first, offers his respectful obeisances unto the Param Satyam and because the Param Satyam is the ultimate Source of all energies the Param Satyam is the Supreme Person. The Gods or the controllers are undoubtedly persons but the Param Satyam from Whom the Gods etc. derive powers of control is also Person and is the Supreme Person. The Sanskrit word Iswara conveys the import of God but the Supreme Person is called the Parameswara or the Supreme Iswara. The Supreme Person or Parameswara is the Supreme Conscious Personality and because He does not derive any power from any other source, therefore, He is Supremely independent. In the Vedic literature Brahma is described as the Supreme God or the head of all other Gods like Indra, Chandra, Varuna etc. but Srimad Bhagwat affirms, that even Brahma is not independent in the matter of His power and knowledge. He received knowledge or the Vedas from the Supreme Person who resides within the heart ([[BG 15.15]]) of every living being. That Supreme Personality knows everything directly and indirectly. Individual infinitesimal persons, who are parts and parcels of the Supreme Personality, may know directly and indirectly everything about their personal body or external features. But the Supreme Personality knows everything perfectly well both about His external and internal features.		<div class="text">

	The word 'janmadyasya' suggests that the source of all production, maintenance and destruction, is the same Supreme conscious Person. Even in our present experience we can know that nothing is generated from inert matter but inert matter can be generated from living entity. By contact of the living entity the material body developes into an working machine. Man with poor fund of knowledge mistakes the bodily machinery as the living being but the fact is that the living being as he is, is the basis of the bodily machine. The bodily machine is useless as soon as the living spark is away from it. As such the original source of all material energy is the Supreme Person. This fact is expressed in all the Vedic literatures and all exponents of spiritual science have accepted this truth. The living force is called in other words as Brahman and one of the greatest Acharya namely Sripad Sankaracharya has preached that Brahman is substance while the cosmic world is category. The original source of all energies being the Living force He is logically accepted as the Supreme Person. He is therefore fully conscious of everything past, present and future and also each and every corner of His creative manifestation both material and spiritual. An imperfect living being does not know even what is happening within the physiological condition of his personal body. He eats his foodstuff but does not know perfectly as to how the foodstuff transforms into vitamins specifically for the particular constitution of his own body. Perfection of a living being means awareness of everything that happens and the Supreme Person being all-perfect it is quite natural for Him that He knows everything in all details. As such the Perfect Personality is addressed in the Srimad Bhagwatam as Vasudeva or One who lives everywhere in full consciousness and in full capacity of His complete energy. The whole thing is clearly explained in the Srimad Bhagwatam and the reader will have ample opportunity to study them in all critical ways.
