‘Then did Arjuna see there, lying in a spot of the body of the Deva of the Devas, all the Kosmos, divided out in various ways.’
In that Divine body of the Deva of the Devas, infinitely long and infinitely broad; of many hands and of many trunks; of many faces and of many eyes; of unlimited effulgence; of countless celestial weapons; of appropriate countless celestial embellishments; of divine garlands and of raiments; redolent with heavenly odours; and teeming with infinite marvels; Arjuna discovered lying in a spot, all the Universe in its multifarious wonderful details of what is Brahmā and others, what are the devas, and what the human, the animal, the vegetable and the mineral, kingdoms are; —entities classed out as the enjoyers, diversities of things of enjoyments, the varied instruments of enjoyment are; what, —with Svarga, Pātāḷa, Ataḷa, Vitaḷa, Sutaḷa, etc.,— the localities of enjoyment are; in short, the Universe composed of Prakṛiti and Purusha,— (or composite of matter and spirit); or the universal glory as depicted in the verses:—
‘I am the Source of all, from Me moves all’ (Gi: X-8);
‘So be it, Kuru-Chief! I will unfold to thee My blessed glories’ (Gi: X-19);
‘I am Ātma, Gudākeśa! enthroned in the hearts of all beings’ (Gi: X-20);
‘Of the Ādityas, I am Vishṇu’ (Gi: X-21);
…
‘Movable or immovable, nothing exists without Me but with Me’ (Gi: X-39);
‘I with but a fraction (of Myself), uphold all this Kosmos abiding therein (Gī: X-42);
Pāṇdava= Arjuna, saw all this with the Divine Eye vouchsafed to him by the Blessed Lord’s grace.
