10.3 Undeluded among mortals Krishna speaks

यो मामजमनादिं च वेत्ति लोकमहेश्वरम्
असम्मूढः स मर्त्येषु सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते

yo māmajam anādiṁ cha vetti loka-maheśhvaram
asammūḍhaḥ sa martyeṣhu sarva-pāpaiḥ pramuchyate

One who knows me as unborn, without beginning, the great lord of the worlds, is undeluded among mortals and freed of all fault.

Explanation

Undeluded, and freed of fault.

One who knows him as unborn, without beginning, great lord of the worlds.

The three attributes are all negative or superlative — nothing here is a picture. The chapter will spend twenty verses supplying pictures, and it begins by saying the real answer has none.
