O lotus-eyed one, I have heard from You in detail about the appearance and disappearance of every living entity and have realized Your inexhaustible glories.

Oo, lootosesilmne, ma olen kuulnud Sinult iga elusolendi ilmumise ja kadumise üksikasjalikku kirjeldust ning mõistnud, et Sinu hiilgus on piiritu.

Purport

Arjuna addresses Lord Kṛṣṇa as “lotus-eyed” (Kṛṣṇa’s eyes appear just like the petals of a lotus flower) out of his joy, for Kṛṣṇa has assured him, in a previous chapter, ahaṁ kṛtsnasya jagataḥ prabhavaḥ pralayas tathā: “I am the source of the appearance and disappearance of this entire material manifestation.” Arjuna has heard of this from the Lord in detail. Arjuna further knows that in spite of His being the source of all appearances and disappearances, He is aloof from them. As the Lord has said in the Ninth Chapter, He is all-pervading, yet He is not personally present everywhere. That is the inconceivable opulence of Kṛṣṇa which Arjuna admits that he has thoroughly understood.

Arjuna pöördub siin suurest rõõmust Kṛṣṇa kui „lootosesilmse" poole (Kṛṣṇa silmad näevad välja justkui lootose kroonlehed), sest eelmises peatükis kinnitas Kṛṣṇa Arjunale: ahaṁ kṛtsnasya jagataḥ prabhavaḥ pralayas tathā – „Mina olen kogu selle materiaalse avaldumise ilmumise ning kadumise alge." Jumal rääkis sellest Arjunale üksikasjalikult. Arjuna teab nüüd, et ehkki Kṛṣṇa on kõige tekke ja hävingu allikas, on Ta Ise kõigest lahus seisev. Nagu Jumal üheksandas peatükis ütles, on Ta kõikeläbiv, kuid sellegipoolest ei viibi Ta kõikjal isiklikult. See on Kṛṣṇa käsitlematu jumalik omadus, mille olemust Arjuna oma siinse tunnistuse kohaselt on läbinisti mõistnud.
