śrī-bhagavān uvāca mayā prasannena tavārjunedaṁ rūpaṁ paraṁ darśitam ātma-yogāt tejo-mayaṁ viśvam anantam ādyaṁ yan me tvad anyena na dṛṣṭa-pūrvam
"The Supreme Lord said: Out of grace I have shown you, O Arjuna, by My own yoga power, this supreme form—radiant, universal, infinite, primal—which no one but you has ever seen before."
What This Means:
Krishna explains: this vision was granted by His grace (prasanna) and His own power (atma-yogat). It's supreme, radiant, universal, infinite, primal—and NO ONE else has EVER seen it.
Going Deeper:
Arjuna receives unique revelation. This vision is given, not achieved. And its uniqueness (tvad-anyena na drishta-purvam—seen by none other than you) makes Arjuna's experience singular in all history.
How To Apply This:
Grace determines revelation. Your spiritual experiences aren't generic—they're given specifically to you. Cherish unique moments of understanding; they're rare gifts.
