Bhagavad Gīta Bhāshya and Tātparya

ākhyāhi me ko bhavān ugrarūpo namo'stu te devavara prasīda। vijñātum icchāmi bhavantam ādyaṁ na hi prajānāmi tava pravṛttim ॥31॥

Declare to me — who are you, O fierce one? Salutations to you, O best of gods, be gracious. I wish to know you as the primordial being, for I do not indeed know your origin or nature.

Gīta Tātparya 11.31

The question is in regard to specific qualities and actions concerning Lord Viṣṇu.

viśeṣaguṇakarmaviṣaya eva praśnaḥ। "viṣṇo" iti sambodhanāt ॥31॥

The question concerns only specific qualities and actions, as inferred from the address "O Viṣṇu".

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
