O greatest of all personalities, O supreme form,
though I see You here before me in Your actual
position, as You have described Yourself, I wish to
see how You have entered into this cosmic
manifestation. I want to see that form of Yours.

Acceptance of the Supreme

Completely satisfied

Humble request
Why Arjuna Requested to Show Universal Form?

• For those who do not accept Krishna

• For those who think Krishna is an ordinary man like

us

• For those, who, in future, claim they are the

incarnations of GOD
Lessons to be Learned

• Lord is Lord forever

• Living Entities are subordinates forever

• Futile to try to become GOD

• Instead develop Godly qualities

Thinking of You as my friend, I have rashly addressed You "O Kåñëa," "O
Yädava," "O my friend," not knowing Your glories. Please forgive whatever I
may have done in madness or in love. I have dishonored You many times,
jesting as we relaxed, lay on the same bed, or sat or ate together, sometimes
alone and sometimes in front of many friends. O infallible one, please excuse
me for all those offenses.
