avajānanti māṃ mūḍhā mānuṣīṃ tanum-āśritam |
paraṃ bhāvam ajānanto mama bhūta-maheśvaram || 11 ||

11. Fools disregard Me, appearing in a human form, not knowing My transcendental nature,
as the Supreme Lord of all beings.

Commentary

“I am in fact the Supreme Lord of all beings, the Omniscient One, who is completely selfdetermining, who has taken a human body out of great compassion so that I might become the refuge of all. They do not realise My true disposition of unlimited compassion, magnanimity, condescension and maternal solicitude which is the reason for My appearing in a human form. But without understanding this, the ignorant consider Me as of the same nature as other beings, because I have assumed the human form.”
