Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the nature of ‘guhya’ instruction: it is shared for the listener’s welfare and satisfaction, while also affirming the supreme addressee’s omniscience—nothing in the three worlds lies outside his knowledge.
Nārada concludes or frames a confidential exposition, saying it was spoken to please the addressed hero (Śatrusūdana/Kṛṣṇa), and he offers reverential praise by asserting that the addressee already knows everything across the three worlds.
