Purport
As it is stated in the Bhagwat Geeta that all the Vedic literatures are glorfying the greatness of the Lord Sri Krishna so it is confirmed here in the Bhagwatam also. The Vedas are expanded by many branches and subbranches by great devotees and empowered incarnations of the Lord like Vyasa, Narada, Sukdeva Goswami, Kumaras, Kapila, Prahlada, Janaka, Bali, Yamraj etc but in the Srimad Bhagwatam specially the confidential parts of His activities are described by confidential devotee like Sukdeva Goswami. In the Vedanta Sutras or Upanishads there is only hint of the confidential parts of His Pastimes. In such Vedic literatures like the Upanishads etc the Lord has expressively been distinguished from the mundane conception of His existence. His identy being full spiritual, His Form, Name, Quality, and Paraphernalia etc have been elaborately distinguished from matter and therefore, He is sometimes misunderstood by less intelligent persons as impersonal. But factually He is the Supreme Person Bhagawan and He is partially represented as Paramatama or impersonal Brahman.
