Was there anything that Arjuna could have missed?
Vishwaroopam is the reality of realities there is nothing in it that could be an illusion or untrue. So massive was that form that Arjuna was frightened and requests the Lord to appear with four hands as Maha Vishnu holding the Chakra, Sankha, Gada and Padma. Lord Krishna puts Arjuna at ease and tells him not to be frightened. He then appears with four hands, holding the mace, conch, discus and lotus. Krishna is indeed beyond compare for, He reveals to Arjuna His Vishwaroopam, and bestow him with a virtue which none are eligible for. The grand old man Bhishma, the ardent devotee of the Lord is very curious and anxious to know what Lord was divulging to Arjuna.
Arjuna might have indulged in playful mocking and many a times taken the liberty of teasing the Lord while He was eating or when He was about to sleep. Arjuna might have treated the Lord just as any other friend. The reason behind such playful acts was Arjuna’s affection for Lord Krishna. Yet after having the vision of the Universal Form, Arjuna feels he should not have treated Him as he had treated other friends. But the truth is that Lord favours devotion and affection above anything else, He would not have been offended by Arjuna’s playfulness.
Krishna truly Aparmita, Apurva, Atirikta, Anupama, Advitiya, Asamanya, Atula……
Om Namah Shivay.
