Vision of the Cosmic Form of God
Arjuna understands that Krishna is what He says He is. If this is something that can be seen, Arjuna wants to see it, so he asks Lord Krishna to reveal His true form. Seeing the wonders of this form, Arjuna is awed and inspired, but this quickly turns to fear and asking for the return of Lord Krishna’s gentle form.
