Krishna wishes to be known not as the all-ruling Lord but as "suhṛdaṃ savyasācinaḥ", the friend of Arjuna: let all the worlds know him first of all as the friend of his devotee. It is telling that the highest name he chooses to reveal is not king or creator, but "friend". For this he is ready even to break his own vow of not entering battle. The verse teaches a hidden truth: the Lord treasures the title of friend to his servant above the glory of ruler of the worlds; and devotion reveals in God not a fearsome sovereign but a loving friend who wishes to be known exactly so.
