Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 15 verse 15

 Chapter 15 verse 15 

“I am seated in the hearts of all living beings, and from Me come memory, knowledge, as well as forgetfulness. I alone am to be known by all the Vedas, am the author of the Vedānt, and the knower of the meaning of the Vedas.” 

If anyone had any doubts of who is orchestrating everything in the world, this statement from Bhagwan has to clarify everything. Bhagwan resides in each of our souls. He ensures what we need to remember and forget in different measures (not past lives or some of it to aid in our spiritual development), information, knowledge, wisdom and the entire range of emotions from body, mind, intellect and ego complex. It is known that veda vyasa compiled the Vedas and Vedanta. In this verse, Bhagwan states that he is the author and originator of the Vedas and Vedanta. Similar to Kapila, who gave sankhya philosophy to the world and is known to be an avatara of Mahavishnu as per srimad bhagavatam, Bhagwan himself states that veda vyasa is an avatara of Himself. Finally Bhagwan states that he is also the meaning and essence of all the Vedas. He is the entity who needs to be known through the Vedas.
