Gita : Ch-11. Slo-7.

Srimad Bhagavad-Gita :

Chapter-11.( Visvarupa-darsana-yogam)

Slokam-7. ( Whatever you wish to see can be seen all at once in this body. This universal form can show you all that you now desire, as well as whatever you may desire in the future. Everything is here completely.)


ihaikastham  jagat  krtsnam  pasyadya  sacaracaram,


mama  dehe  gudakesa  yaccanyaddrashtumicchasi.


gudakesa! = hey Arjuna!

scaracaram krstnam jagat = with all living and non-living things, the whole jagat;

anyat yat = other things;

drashtum iccasi ( tat ) ca = if  you are anxious to see, all of them;

mama dehe iha adya = now here in My body ( Visvarupam );

ekastham = all together ( present in one );

pasya = watch yourself.


 Now Lord Krishna emphasises clearly that the total material manifestation consisting of unlimited things, animate and inanimate, moving and stationary, sentient and insentient all are harmoniously comprised within only a part of His visvarupa or divine universal form.

Not only that but also creation, evolution, dissolution, past, present, future are also there to be seen. There should be absolutely no doubts about this reality.


Lord Krishna reveals that the whole creation consisting of unlimited moving and stationary things are all contained in ihaikastham meaning in only one part of His visvarupa or divine universal form and anything else that could be desired to be seen is in this location as well.

This denotes that there are many other marvels and wonders in other parts that are undisclosed.


Lord Krishna is stating pasya behold now in His visvarupa or divine universal form, this very moment the entire creation with all its movable and immovable components all integrated together and united as different parts of a singular form in His transcendental universal form.

This phenomenal form is impossible of being seen by demigods, humans and demons even in tens of millions of years wandering unobstructed throughout all creation.

Everything that exists can be seen in this universal form as well as anything else that may be seen such as past and future along with different conditions in creation including victory and defeat. Also prakriti the material substratum as well as the brahman the spiritual substratum pervading all existence.

To be continued  ....

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday, March 21, 2021. 07:57. AM. Chapter 8: Creation and Life After Death -1. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Bhagavadgita is a moksha-shastra, a scripture on the science of the liberation of the spirit. Thus it follows the course of the return process along the same lines as the evolutionary process of the descent of the soul from the Supreme Being. The first six chapters may be said to be engaged in an exposition of self-discipline from the individual point of view, the integration of the human personality and the preparation of the whole man for the greater task which is yet to come – namely, the at-one-ment of the individual with the set-up of the universe. Some of the interpreters and commentators on the Bhagavadgita hold that the first six chapters have a relevance to the significance of the term 'twam' in the famous Upanishadic p...

================================================================================= Saturday 01, June 2024 06:40. Chapter 7: The Entry of the Absolute into the Relative -3. Post-33. ================================================================================= There are endless connections of this type. The relationship of adhyatma and adhibhuta is involved in an infinite variety of degrees of ascent and descent. This imperative of the presence of a consciousness between adhyatma and adhibhuta in various degrees is the reason why you sometimes feel there are many gods. Sometimes the question arises: Are there many gods, or only one God? There is only one God, the Absolute, but inasmuch as it manifests itself as an interconnecting link between subject and object through millions of degrees of ascent and descent, it looks as there are millions of gods. It is as if there are millions of governments merely because there are millions of officials in a centrality of administration. There is...
