And that immeasurable Man — holding the conch, the discus, and the mace, four-armed, clad in yellow raiment, dark of complexion, with elongated lotus eyes — who walked before my chariot in blazing radiance, incinerating the enemy armies — him I see no more. The enemy armies he had first consumed by his power, I afterward destroyed with arrows released from the Gandiva. Not seeing him, I am cast down and stagger as though lost, O good one; my mind is despondent and I find no peace. Without the hero Janardana I dare not live; for upon hearing of Vishnu's departure, the very directions grew dark before me. Bereft of kindred and strength, desolate and wandering — deign, O good one, to instruct me in what is good.

Here the secret of all Arjuna's victories is revealed: before his chariot it was the four-armed Lord Himself who walked, "incinerating the enemy armies," while the hero merely "destroyed afterward" those already laid low by His power. Thus it is disclosed that all the warrior's glory was the Lord's doing, acting before him. Now, no longer seeing Him, Arjuna "dares not live" — for He alone was the support of life. The verse teaches that behind all the victories and strength of the devotee the Lord Himself acts unseen, and what remains for the person is only what God has already accomplished before him; and that one who has seen this truth understands: without the Lord, life has neither strength nor meaning, and therefore all the soul's striving must be directed not toward one's own achievements but toward the One who alone is their true author.
