People mock Krishna because they see only a human body and miss his higher nature as the lord of all beings.
संदर्भ और टिप्पणी
On Kurukshetra, Krishna keeps teaching Arjuna while the armies wait. He explains why some people dismiss him: they see only a human body and miss his vast nature as ruler of all beings. This verse answers that misunderstanding directly.
आज के संदर्भ में
You meet someone in a plain shirt and underestimate them before they speak. Or you dismiss a quiet teacher, a grieving parent, or a soft-spoken leader because the surface seems ordinary.
सार
Respect can fail when we judge by appearance alone. Seeing more deeply changes everything.
