नमः पुरस्तादथ पृष्ठतस्ते नमोऽस्तु ते सर्वत एव सर्व । अनन्तवीर्यामितविक्रमस्त्वं सर्वं समाप्नोषि ततोऽसि सर्वः ॥ ४० ॥
namaḥ purastād atha pṛiṣhṭhatas te namo ’stu te sarvata eva sarva ananta-vīryāmita-vikramas tvaṁ sarvaṁ samāpnoṣhi tato ’si sarvaḥ
Translation
Salutations to You in front and behind; salutations to You on every side, O All. Your power is infinite and Your might beyond measure; You pervade everything, and so You are everything.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
हे सर्वात्मन्! आपको आगे से और पीछे से नमस्कार है, आपको सब ओर से नमस्कार है। आप अनंत शक्ति और अपार पराक्रम वाले हैं; आप सबमें व्याप्त हैं, इसलिए आप ही सब कुछ हैं।
Commentary
Arjun bows in every direction because Krishna is in every direction. The closing reasoning is simple and complete: he pervades everything, therefore he is everything (tato 'si sarvah). This verse, like the one before, is often recited as a salutation during worship.
