In slokas 10:21 to 10:38 Lord Krishna tells Arjuna his divine manifestations that are very important.
First Column refers to the Gita Sloka number
The second Column refers to the major group
The third Column refers to the specific manifestations
E.g.: You shall read row 1 as “Lord Krishna is Vishnu among the Adityas"
