Hindi Translation
।।11.37।। हे महात्मन् ! ब्रह्मा के भी आदि कर्ता और सबसे श्रेष्ठ आपके लिए वे कैसे नमस्कार नहीं करें? (क्योंकि) हे अनन्त! हे देवेश! हे जगन्निवास! जो सत् असत् और इन दोनों से परे अक्षरतत्त्व है, वह आप ही हैं।।
English Translation
"11.37 And why should they not, O great Soul, bow to Thee Who art greater (than all else), the primal cause even of the Creator (Brahma), O Infinite Being, O Lord of the gods, O Abode of the universe; Thou art the imperishable, the Being, the non-being and That which is the supreme (that which is beyond the Being and the non-being)."

He is greater than all else. He is the imperishable. So He is the proper object of worship? love and delight.That which exists in the three periods of time is Sat. Brahman is Sat. That which does not exist in the three periods of time is Asat. This world is Asat. This body is Asat.The words Sat and Asat mean here the manifested and the unmanifested which form the adjuncts of the Akshara (imperishable). In reality the Akshara transcends both these. The word Akshara is applied in the Gita sometimes to the Unmanifest (Nature) and sometimes to the Supreme Being.Ananta is He Who is free from the three kinds of limitations (of time? space and thing) which have already been explained.Arjuna again praises the Lord thus
