Penjelasan

Krishna identifies himself with that highest person. Because he surpasses the perishable and is higher even than the imperishable, he is known in common speech and in the Veda as Puruṣottama, the Supreme Person. The name gives the chapter its traditional title. For Arjuna, the friend driving his chariot is revealed once more as the one in whom all levels of reality find their source, a theme that echoes the vision of an earlier chapter.
