Ramanuja's Commentary
In the Supreme Lord Krishna's divine, transcendental and phenomenal
visvarupa or divine universal form infinitely high and unfathomably wide
with splendorous effulgence and unlimited faces, heads, eyes and bodies,
with unlimited celestial weapons and unlimited celestial ornaments
accompanied by celestial unguents, divine garlands and raiment's. All
interacting with unlimited wonders and marvels. Arjuna could clearly see
manifested in a single location within the universal form all of creation
with its unlimited multifarious and variegated details from the greatly
powerful Brahma and all the demigods down to a humble blade of grass. He
could see the complete animal, vegetable and mineral kingdoms and all the
diverse planetary systems all composed of prakriti or the material
substratum pervading material existence from the highest Bhur, Bhuvar, Svar
etc. all the way down to the lowest planetary system of Patala with all
there varying inhabitants, habitats and habits. He could also perceive the
brahman or the spiritual substratum pervading all existence with its
sublimely subtle transcendental presence imperceptible to normal eyes. All
this was seen by Arjuna due to the divine vision bequeathed upon him by
Lord Krishna substantiating His declarations in chapter 10 such as verse
39: That He is the origin of all and nothing can exist separately,
independent from Him and in verse 42 He states that by a mere fraction of
His potency He maintains and sustains all moving and stationary beings.
