मन्यसे यदि तच्छक्यं मया द्रष्टुमिति प्रभो । योगेश्वर ततो मे त्वं दर्शयात्मानमव्ययम् ॥ ४ ॥
manyase yadi tach chhakyaṁ mayā draṣhṭum iti prabho yogeśhvara tato me tvaṁ darśhayātmānam avyayam
Translation
O Lord, if You think it possible for me to see it, then, O master of yoga, show me that imperishable Self of Yours.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
हे प्रभो! यदि आप मानते हैं कि मैं उसे देख सकता हूँ, तो हे योगेश्वर! मुझे अपने उस अविनाशी स्वरूप का दर्शन कराइए।
Commentary
Arjun asks humbly. He does not demand the vision; he leaves it to Krishna to judge whether he is ready to receive it. He addresses Krishna as Yogeshvara, "lord of yoga," because only one who commands every power could reveal such a form. The humility matters: in verse 8 Krishna answers by giving Arjun a new kind of sight.
