Now, O Supreme Lord, as Thou hast thus described Thyself, O Supreme Person, I wish to behold Thy divine form.

Meaning

Some commentators take the two halves of this verse as two independent sentences and interpret it thusSo it is, O Supreme Lord, as Thou hast declared Thyself to be. (But still) I desire to see Thy form as Isvara, O Supreme Person.Rupamaisvaram Thy form as Isvara, that of Vishnu as possessed of infinite knowledge, sovereignty, power, strength, prowess and splendour.
