Purushottama

In Bhagavad Gita verse 10.15, Arjuna fully accepts Krishna's divine nature and acknowledges Him as source of all creation, including the gods.

[4] The text invokes this epithet in its verses: स्वयमेवात्मनात्मानं वेत्थ त्वं पुरुषोत्तम । भूतभावन भूतेश देवदेव जगत्पते ||१५|| swayam evātmanātmānaṁ vettha tvaṁ puruṣhottama | bhūta-bhāvana bhūteśha deva-deva jagat-pate ||15||

That lord of the universe, who will vanquish Bali the foremost of Danavas, is not only the victor of the Daityas but is the conqueror of three worlds and is worshipful unto the gods.

And establishing communion with Him people practise hard austerities in this world.The epithet is featured in the Vishnu Panjaram, a mantra to the deity:[6] Salutation unto thee, O Purusottama.

Taking up thy mace Shatana, O thou having lotus eyes, protect me in the north, O lord of the universe, I have taken refuge with thee.Purushottama was explained by the philosopher Haridas Chaudhuri (1913–1975) as representing that ineffable phenomenon that lies even beyond the undifferentiated Godhead.
