10.17 How shall I, ever meditating, know Thee, O Yogin? In what aspects or things, O blessed Lord, art Thou to be thought of by me?
In English by Swami Sivananda
10.17 कथम् how, विद्याम् shall know, अहम् I, योगिन् O Yogin, त्वाम् Thee, सदा always, परिचिन्तयन् meditating, केषु केषु in what and what, च and, भावेषु aspects, चिन्त्यः to be thought of, असि (Thou) art, भगवन् O blessed Lord, मया by me.Commentary Arjuna says O Lord, how may I know Thee by constant meditation In what aspects art Thou to be thought of by me Even when I think of external objects I can meditate on Thee in Thy particular manifestations in them if I have a detailed knowledge of Thy glories. Therefore deign to tell me, without reserve, of Thy own glories. Then only can I behold oneness everywhere.
