Simple Translation

Oh conqueror of sleep! Behold in one part of my form here, all movable and immovable entities of the material realm! You can see in one part of my body whichever else you may like to see.

Rendering based on ALkoNdavilli gOvindhAchArya swAmy’s English translation of gIthA bhAshyam

‘Behold now all the Kosmos moving and non-moving nestling here, Gudākesa! in a corner of My body; and whichever else you may wish to see.’

In My body sole, in but a corner of it too, look, the whole universe of moving and non-moving things, lies.

And whatever else that You shall desire to see, you may find it all to so lie in but a portion of My Form.

>> Chapter 11 verse 8
