Explanation

Arjuna accepts everything Krishna has said as true. He then repeats, in his own words, the point Krishna made at the start of the chapter: no one, neither the gods nor their opponents the dānavas, knows Krishna's manifestation (vyakti), the way he comes into appearance. Naming both gods and demons covers the whole range of powerful beings. The verse shows faith and humility together. Arjuna does not claim to have understood what even the gods cannot, but he trusts what he has been told. This sets up his request in the verses that follow.
