"I believe that you have created the entire universe and that you are fostering it and presiding over both the evolution and involution of the worlds, that you are the master of Srishti (creation), Sthithi (sustenance), and Laya (dissolution). You have told me this yourself. I am ever grateful for this and I am happy that I was considered worthy."

"But how, in what forms, are You immanent in the universe You have brought into being? I long to hear it from You and make myself worthier to be alive," said Arjuna. "And which among these various forms am I to meditate upon? Tell me, so that I can meditate likewise and save myself," he pleaded.

"A petty small question, that !" said Krishna, with a smile. "Perhaps, you felt that you can easily understand the answer, if given! Right. Since the question has been put, I shall melt a little and give the answer. Listen carefully. I am the inner Atma in the lotus heart of each and every being. So, if you believe and direct your life on the basis of the belief that the inner Atma in every being is My Paramatma, that is enough Dhyana for you. See that this belief is not shaken or overthrown. Stick to it steadily, practise that belief, apply it in your deeds, words and thoughts. Then the experience of oneness, of your being Me and I being you, can be achieved."

"The five elements, earth, water, fire, wind and sky are also My forms. I am the activity in the sun, moon and stars. When the great destruction comes, I am the force of destruction and I am the force which constructs again. I am everything from the microscopic to the macroscopic; I am the past, the present and the future. I am the three regions and the three Gunas which have shaped man and nature. There is no object which is not I; no name which is not Mine. Blood taken from any part of the body is the same as from any other part; so too, the divine is everywhere the same."

Arjuna joined both his palms and with uplifted hands he asked, "Krishna? The whole of creation is your form, is it not? Knowledge, wealth, power, strength, energy, splendour - all these are expressions of Your glory, are they not? Well, will You not give me the sacred chance to fulfil my life's desire to experience You as all this creation, as Viswarupa, of the form of creation itself? I plead with you. I pray at Your feet."

Knowing the anguish of his heart, Krishna replied. "Arjuna! I shall certainly satisfy you. But your physical eyes cannot see that glory. The Viswarupa cannot be perceived by the limited vision which sees and grasps only this nature. Therefore, I shall confer on you the supernatural eye. Now, see!" He said and manifested Himself before him as creation and more. What great mercy! What superb experience!
