Understanding Krishna is the complete knowledge; all other truths automatically become known to the faithful seeker.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Bhagavad-gītā 7.2 — April 28, 1974, Hyderabad 740428BG-HYDERABAD [42:36 Minutes] Bg-07.02_740428BG-HYDERABAD Pradyumna: [leads chanting of verse] [devotees repeat] jñānaṁ te 'haṁ sa-vijñānam idaṁ vakṣyāmy aśeṣataḥ yaj jñātvā na iha bhūyaḥ anyat jñātavyam avaśiṣyate [Bg. 7.2] [break] [02:35] Translation: "I shall now declare unto you in full this knowledge, both phenomenal and noumenal, by knowing which there shall remain nothing further to be known." Prabhupāda: Hmm. jñānaṁ te 'haṁ sa-vijñānam idaṁ vakṣyāmy aśeṣataḥ yaj jñātvā na iha bhūyaḥ anyat jñātavyam avaśiṣyate [Bg. 7.2] Yesterday I was speaking in that meeting... What is? School?

That is the first education of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, or spiritual knowledge. We are spiritual, and Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godead, He is also complete spirit. He is not material. Even the impersonalist, Śaṅkarācārya, he has described about Nārāyaṇa in his commentary on Bhagavad-gītā, nārāyaṇaḥ paraḥ avyaktāt.
Nārāyaṇa, the Personality of Godhead, is not anything of this material world. Paraḥ avyaktāt, avyaktāt andha sambhavaḥ. But from the avyaktāt, this material world, or the universe, is created. Therefore Nārāyaṇa or Kṛṣṇa...
