Detailed Meaning
In this verse, Krishna establishes His transcendental nature as 'Aja' (unborn) and 'Anadi' (without beginning), distinguishing Himself from the cycle of birth and death that governs all created beings. To know Him as 'Loka-Maheshvaram' is not merely intellectual data but a deep realization of His sovereignty over all planes of existence. This realization, according to Vedic philosophy, is not attained by logic alone but through Divine Grace (Kripa). Such an 'Asammudha' (undeluded person) is freed from 'Sarva-papaih' (all karmic reactions), as their consciousness shifts from the finite to the Infinite.
