As much use as a well when flooded from all sides by water
Are all the brahmins' Vedas to a wise man.
Source: Milind S. Pandit
To a Self-realized person the Vedas are as useful as a reservoir of water when there is flood water available everywhere.
All purposes that are served by the small pond can at once be served by the great reservoirs of water. Similarly, all the purposes of the Vedas can be served to one who knows the purpose behind them.
