To the Brahmana who has known the Self, all the Vedas are of as much use as is a reservoir of water in a place where there is a flood.

As much use as there is in a small well when water floods everywhere, so much use is there in all the Vedas for a knowing brahmin.

Maelezo
The verse uses an image of water. When the whole land is flooded, a small well has limited use. In the same way, for a brahmin who truly knows, the Vedas have only as much use as that well. The comparison has been read in different ways. Some see it as saying that the Vedas' purpose is fulfilled in realisation, others that the knower takes from scripture only what is needed. Either way, the verse ranks direct understanding above ritual gain.
