Purport by Srila Prabhupada
Out of loving ecstasy for Krishna, his friend, Arjuna is offering his respects from all sides. He is accepting that He is the master of all potencies and all prowess and far superior to all the great warriors assembled on the battlefield. It is said in the Vishnu Purana (1.9.69):
yo 'yam tavagato deva
samipam devata-ganah
sa tvam eva jagat-srashta
yatah sarva-gato bhavan
"Whoever comes before You, be he a demigod, is created by You, O Supreme Personality of Godhead."
