Translation
Translation
O great one, greater even than Brahmā, You are the original creator. Why then should they not offer their respectful obeisances unto You? O limitless one, God of gods, refuge of the universe! You are the invincible source, the cause of all causes, transcendental to this material manifestation.
O veliki Gospodine, veći i od samoga Brahme, Ti si prvobitni stvoritelj. Zašto Ti onda ne bismo odali poštovanje? O neograničeni, Bože nad bogovima, utočište svemira! Ti si nepobjedivi izvor, uzrok svih uzroka, transcendentalan prema ovom materijalnom očitovanju.

By this offering of obeisances, Arjuna indicates that Kṛṣṇa is worshipable by everyone. He is all-pervading, and He is the Soul of every soul. Arjuna is addressing Kṛṣṇa as mahātmā, which means that He is most magnanimous and unlimited. Ananta indicates that there is nothing which is not covered by the influence and energy of the Supreme Lord, and deveśa means that He is the controller of all demigods and is above them all. He is the shelter of the whole universe. Arjuna also thought that it was fitting that all the perfect living entities and powerful demigods offer their respectful obeisances unto Him, because no one is greater than Him. Arjuna especially mentions that Kṛṣṇa is greater than Brahmā because Brahmā is created by Him. Brahmā is born out of the lotus stem grown from the navel abdomen of Garbhodaka-śāyī Viṣṇu, who is Kṛṣṇa’s plenary expansion; therefore Brahmā and Lord Śiva, who is born of Brahmā, and all other demigods must offer their respectful obeisances. It is stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that the Lord is respected by Lord Śiva and Brahmā and similar other demigods. The word akṣaram is very significant because this material creation is subject to destruction but the Lord is above this material creation. He is the cause of all causes, and being so, He is superior to all the conditioned souls within this material nature as well as the material cosmic manifestation itself. He is therefore the all-great Supreme.
SMISAO: Odajući poštovanje na ovaj način, Arjuna pokazuje da Kṛṣṇa zavređuje obožavanje svih živih bića. On prožima sve i duša je svake duše. Arjuna oslovljava Kṛṣṇu kao mahātmu, što znači da je najvelikodušniji i neograničen. Ananta znači da Svojim utjecajem i energijom prekriva sve što postoji, a deveśa znači da je gospodar svih polubogova i da je viši od svih njih. On je utočište cijeloga svemira. Nitko nije veći od Njega i zato je Arjuna smatrao da sva savršena bića i moćni polubogovi s pravom odaju ponizno poštovanje Njemu. Arjuna posebno spominje da je Kṛṣṇa veći od Brahme, zato što je stvorio Brahmu. Brahmā se rađa iz stabljike lotosa izniklog iz pupka Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇua, Kṛṣṇine potpune ekspanzije. Stoga Mu i Brahmā i Śiva, rođen kao Brahmin sin, i svi drugi polubogovi, moraju odati ponizno poštovanje. U Śrīmad-Bhāgavatamu rečeno je da Śiva, Brahmā i drugi polubogovi poštuju Gospodina. Riječ akṣaram vrlo je značajna, jer je materijalni svijet podložan uništenju, ali Gospodin je transcendentalan prema njemu. On je uzrok svih uzroka i zato je viši od svih uvjetovanih duša u materijalnom svijetu i samoga materijalnog kozmičkog očitovanja. Prema tome, On je najveći, Svevišnji.
