Gist of the sloka:
Confused and weakened, [Arjuna says] my mind is clouded and I am unable to think properly. Please tell me what is the right path of dharma. You who is the epitome of Dharma, I am seeking your guidance, I am surrendering to you. Please show me the way.
Explanation:
I am filled with confusion. I have lost the sense of balance in thinking what is right according to dharma and what is not. I am unable to decide if war is required or not. I am unable to decide what is in my interest and what is not.
I am your disciple and have fully surrendered to you. Please guide me.
Until now Arjuna who has talking like a all-knowing knowledgeable wise man, realizes his limits and surrenders to the Lord. At this point Lord takes the ownership and starts guiding.
