physical eyes; therefore I give you spiritual

vision to perceive my majestic power.

Having spoken these words, Krishna, the master of

yoga, revealed to Arjuna his most exalted, lordly form.

10

He appeared with an infinite number of faces,

ornamented by heavenly jewels, displaying unending

miracles and the countless weapons of his power.

Clothed in celestial garments and covered with

garlands, sweet-smelling with heavenly fragrances,

he showed himself as the infinite Lord, the source

of all wonders, whose face is everywhere.

12

If a thousand suns were to rise in the heavens

at the same time, the blaze of their light would

resemble the splendor of that supreme spirit.

13

There, within the body of the God of gods,

Arjuna saw all the manifold forms of the universe

united as one. 14 Filled with amazement, his hair

standing on end in ecstasy, he bowed before the

Lord with joined palms and spoke these words.
