Chapter 11 : Universal Form of Shri Krishna

Ch 11 : Sh 37

कस्माच्च ते न नमेरन्महात्मन्‌ गरीयसे ब्रह्मणोऽप्यादिकर्त्रे।
अनन्त देवेश जगन्निवास त्वमक्षरं सदसत्तत्परं यत्‌ ॥

Transliteration

kasmācca te na nameran mahātman garīyase brahmaṇo’pyādikartre |
ananta deveśa jagan-nivāsa tvam akṣaraṃ sadasat tatparaṃ yat || 37 ||

Translation

And why should they not, O Mahātman, bow down to You who are Great One, being the first Creator, even of Brahma? O Infinite One, Lord of devatas, O You who have the universe for Your abode! You are the imperishable individual Self, the existent and the non-existent, and that which is beyond both.

Purport

Seeing the destructive form of Bhagvan Shri Krishna, Arjun got scared to his core and started shivering and bows down to Shri Krishna again.

He further realizes Bhagvan Shri Krishna is supreme, the whole universe in himself, the creator the maintainer and the destroyer. He is the origin of everything existing in the universe. He saw all three forms of Shri Krishna, the Creator, the maintainer and the destroyer in the great universal form.

He is describing the glory of Shri Krishna in his words.
