Parasara Muni, a great sage and the father of Vyasadeva, who compiled
all the Vedic literatures, gave the following definition of God:

aisvaryasya samagrasya
viryasya yasasah sriyah
jnana-vairagyayos caiva
sannam bhaga itingana
(Visnu Purana 6.5.47)

Bhagavan, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is thus defined by
Parasara Muni as one who is full in six opulences--who has full
strength, fame, wealth, knowledge, beauty, and renunciation.
