Sri Bhagavan said—O Arjuna, being pleased with you, I have shown you, by My power, this shining, primal and infinite Universal Form, which was not seen before by anyone else than you.(47)

By what means can a man see Your Universal Form, O Lord?

By no means. O hero of the Kurus, neither by the study of the Vedas nor by rituals, nor by gifts, nor by sacrifices, nor by austere penances can this Form of Mine be seen in this mortal world by anyone else than you.(48)

But O Lord, I am very much afraid by seeing this dreadful Form. What should I do?

O brother, be not afraid nor perturbed on seeing this dreadful Form of Mine. Now with a fearless and complacent mind behold once again the same Form of Mine.(49)

O Sanjaya, what Form did Sri Bhagavan reveal to Arjuna then?

Sanjaya said—Having thus spoken to Arjuna, Bhagavan Vasudeva revealed to him His four-armed Form and then assuming his two-armed gentle form consoled Arjuna who was frightened.(50)
