विस्तरेणात्मनो योगं विभूतिं च जनार्दन ।भूयः कथय तृप्तिर्हि शृण्वतो नास्ति मेऽमृतम्॥
vistareṇātmano yogaṃ vibhūtiṃ ca janārdanabhūyaḥ kathaya tṛptir hi śṛṇvato nāsti me ’mṛtam
Word by word
The verse says
Tell me again, in detail, your power and your glories, Krishna. I am not finished listening to this — there is no end to it for me.
In plain words
He has already been told. He asks again.
Tṛptir hi nāsti me — there is no being filled, for me. The word is the one you would use about food.
This is not a man gathering information. He has stopped needing to and started wanting to.
Where you've felt this · in friendship
Your friend has told you the story of how she met her husband four times and you have asked for it again. You know every beat of it, including the part about the wrong train. You are not asking because you forgot. You are asking because you like being in the room while she tells it.
Going deeper
Wanting to hear something again, knowing it already, is a different relationship from wanting to find something out.
Up to this point Arjuna has been a student with questions. The word he uses here belongs to appetite rather than enquiry — he says he cannot be filled. Something has turned from a problem he needs solved into something he enjoys being near.
That shift is quietly the subject of the whole chapter, which is why eleven verses of preamble come before the list. The list would read as a catalogue if it arrived earlier. It reads as generosity because of who is asking and why.
For a reader it suggests a test of where you are with anything you have been learning. Information you want once is information. The things that actually change people are the ones they go back to after they have understood them.
