The quality, affect and importance of Divine-God is infinite. Therefore, the praise and pray of saints and humans will never match with the glories of divine. Thus how praise and pray of Arjuna can appropriately define Divine-God, he is incompetent in doing so.

I am dedicating my body sleeping straight down on foots and by greeting want to please You who deserve praise. O Divine-God! as father bear offence of son, friend of friend and husband of wife similarly You are capable of ignoring My misdeed. (Bagwat-Gita:11/44)

Krishna thinks that Divine-God of the worlds deserves to be praised and prayed by all. The quality, affect and importance of Divine-God is infinite. Therefore, the praise and pray of saints and humans will never match with the glories of divine. Thus how praise and pray of Arjuna can appropriately define Divine-God, he is incompetent in doing so. Therefore, Arjuna is stating that he can only bowing down to greet the Divine-God.

Many time out of love when father hug small baby son, child sometime do misdeeds like snatch bear or throw leg but father ignore all these happily considering small age and immaturity, he do not feel that baby is humiliating him.

People generally in friendship and deep relation not knowing the importance of concern person, laugh and joke, and neglect, humiliate others. Many time considering childhood friendship and family relation ignore the present status of concern person and that cause humiliation or discard. During the childhood friendship there may be equal status but over the period of time lot of feeling and self-image of person changes and accordingly he want to be treated. What the laughing and joke was permissible during childhood friendship that become prohibited with change in status. Here, out of generosity and love Lord Krishna has never minded the ill-behave or joke of Arjuna.

The relationship of husband and wife is unique they are life-long partner and share each and every moment and challenges. Unfortunately thinks are taken into granted and husband and wife may be behaving ignoring the background and context of other. Learning with maturity matter of outrage, neglect and ill-behave are checked and they do not react on other.

Giving such examples Arjuna is requesting Lord Krishna to pardon his behavior conducted in past out of ignorance.
