Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 11
Here, the vision of the Lord's four-armed form, rather than the cosmic form, has been declared as rare, because the cosmic form has already been glorified in almost identical words, in the forty-eighth verse. If we take it as praise of the cosmic form, it means that we expose the Lord to a charge of repetition. Also in the next verse the Lord Himself explains, that He can be seen in this form by exclusive devotion. The cosmic form cannot be viewed by exclusive devotion, because how can a devotee have exclusive devotion, for His cosmic form, when even the valiant devotee Arjuna, was terrified of that form, while having divine vision?
