Erläuterung

Krishna speaks of how rare such knowledge is. Among thousands of people, scarcely one strives for spiritual perfection, and among those who strive and succeed, scarcely one knows Krishna as he truly is, tattvataḥ, in his essence. The verse is not meant to discourage but to underline the value of what is about to be taught. Arjuna is being offered something that even accomplished seekers seldom reach. It also gently warns that achievement in practice is not the same as full understanding.
