TRANSLATION Because you
are My very dear friend, I am speaking to you the most confidential part
of knowledge. Hear this from Me, for it is for your benefit.
PURPORT The Lord has
given Arjuna confidential knowledge of the Supersoul within everyone's
heart, and now He is giving the most confidential part of this knowledge:
just surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. At the end of the
Ninth Chapter He has said, "Just always think of Me." The same instruction
is repeated here to stress the essence of the teachings of Bhagavad-gita.
This essence is not understood by a common man, but by one who is actually
very dear to Krsna, a pure devotee of Krsna. This is the most important
instruction in all Vedic literature. What Krsna is saying in this connection
is the most essential part of knowledge, and it should be carried out not
only by Arjuna but by all living entities.
