Purport

The Lord has given Arjuna knowledge that is confidential (knowledge of Brahman) and still more confidential (knowledge of the Supersoul within everyone’s heart), and now He is giving the most confidential part of knowledge: just surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. At the end of the Ninth Chapter He has said, man-manāḥ: “Just always think of Me.” The same instruction is repeated here to stress the essence of the teachings of Bhagavad-gītā. This essence is not understood by a common man, but by one who is actually very dear to Kṛṣṇa, a pure devotee of Kṛṣṇa. This is the most important instruction in all Vedic literature. What Kṛṣṇa is saying in this connection is the most essential part of knowledge, and it should be carried out not only by Arjuna but by all living entities.

FORKLARING: Herren har givet Arjuna viden, der er fortrolig (viden om Brahman), og viden, der er endnu mere fortrolig (viden om Oversjælen i alles hjerter), og nu giver Han den mest fortrolige del af al viden: Blot overgiv dig til Guddommens Højeste Personlighed. I slutningen af kapitel 9 (vers 34) sagde Han, man-manāḥ: “Tænk altid på Mig.” Nu bliver den samme instruktion gentaget for at understrege essensen af Bhagavad-gītās lære. Denne essens kan ikke forstås af folk i almindelighed, men af den, Kṛṣṇa faktisk holder meget af, en ren hengiven af Kṛṣṇa. Dette er den vigtigste instruktion i hele den vediske litteratur. Hvad Kṛṣṇa siger i denne forbindelse, er den mest essentielle del af al kundskab og bør følges af ikke blot Arjuna, men af alle levende væsener.
