Your question certainly makes sense. Everything in our experience of this temporary world has a source. Trees come from other trees, animals from other animals; watches come from watchmakers, etc. This material world is the world of cause and effect. Cause A creates effect B, cause B creates effect C, and so on.
The Absolute Truth, also known as Krishna, is different; the Vedas describe Krishna as the cause of all causes, the ultimate source of all energies. Such a source is beyond our experience of this world of cause and effect. This is the subject of the Srimad-Bhagavatam and the Bhagavad-gita.
The supreme, personal cause has no other cause beyond Him. If someone or something else created Him, He wouldn't be supreme. But lots of evidence suggests that He is in fact the cause of all causes.
