हन्त ते कथयिष्यामि दिव्या ह्यात्मविभूतयः।प्राधान्यतः कुरुश्रेष्ठ नास्त्यन्तो विस्तरस्य मे॥
hanta te kathayiṣyāmi divyā hyātma-vibhūtayaḥprādhānyataḥ kuru-śreṣṭha nāstyanto vistarasya me
Word by word
The verse says
Krishna said: Yes. I will tell you my divine glories — the chief ones only, best of the Kurus. There is no end to the full extent of me.
In plain words
Hanta — an exclamation, something like: right, then.
He agrees immediately and sets one limit. Only the main ones.
Not because the rest are secret. Because there is no end to them, and a list has to stop somewhere.
Where you've felt this · at work
You ask a cook who has run a kitchen for thirty years what the important things are. She does not give you everything she knows, because she could not and you could not hold it. She gives you six, which are the six she would want somebody to have if she only had ten minutes.
Going deeper
Selection is being announced openly, which is more useful than completeness would have been.
He says plainly that what follows is partial. That protects the reader from a mistake they would otherwise make — treating the list as a boundary, as though the places not named were places he is absent from. Verse 40 will say the same thing again at the other end, and verse 41 will generalise it past any list at all.
So the twenty verses ahead are examples, not an inventory.
That is how to read them. Each item is there to train a kind of recognition, and once the recognition works the list has done its job and can be put down. Memorising it would be like memorising the six things the cook said instead of learning to cook.
