न हि ते भगवन् व्यक्तिं विदुर्देवा न दानवाः

sarvametadṛtaṃ manye yanmāṃ vadasi keśava
na hi te bhagavan vyaktiṃ vidurdevā na dānavāḥ

"O Keshava, all that you are telling me I accept as entirely true. O Lord, neither the gods nor the demons know your manifestation."
Interpretation
Shankaracharya. sarvam etat yathoktam ṛṣibhiḥ tvayā ca etat ṛtaṃ satyam eva manye; vyaktiṃ prabhavaṃ viduḥ na devāḥ, na dānavāḥ.
Acharya Ramanuja. yathāvasthitavastukathanaṃ manye na praśaṃsādyabhiprāyam — I take this as a description of things as they are, not something said in praise; vyaktiṃ vyañjanaprakāraṃ — the manner of your manifestation; na hi parimitajñānā devā dānavāḥ ca viduḥ — gods and demons, whose knowledge is limited, do not know it.
