(CC Madhya 25.33)

The Brahman, as explained by Caitanya Mahāprabhu—He's summarizing—Brahman means the greatest. Greatest means . . . how we can estimate greatest? "Oh, he is the greatest rich man. He is the greatest strong man. He is greatest man of knowledge. He is greatest the man of beauty. He is greatest man of . . ." That is God. That's all.
