nanto 'sti mama divyanam
vibhutinam parantapa
esa tuddesatah prokto
vibhuter vistaro maya

SYNONYMS

na--nor; antah--a limit; asti--is there; mama--My; divyanam--divine; vibhutinam--opulences; parantapa--O conqueror of the enemies; esah--all this; tu--that; uddesatah--examples; proktah--spoken; vibhuteh--opulences; vistarah--expanded; maya--by Me. 

TRANSLATION

O mighty conqueror of enemies, there is no end to My divine manifestations. What I have spoken to you is but a mere indication of My infinite opulences.

PURPORT

As stated in the Vedic literature, although the opulences and energies of the Supreme are understood in various ways, there is no limit to such opulences; therefore not all the opulences and energies can be explained. Simply a few examples are being described to Arjuna to pacify his inquisitiveness.
