Chapter 11 : Universal Form of Shri Krishna

Ch 11 : Sh 22

रुद्रादित्या वसवो ये च साध्याविश्वेऽश्विनौ मरुतश्चोष्मपाश्च ।
गंधर्वयक्षासुरसिद्धसङ्घाावीक्षन्ते त्वां विस्मिताश्चैव सर्वे ॥

Transliteration

rudrādityā vasavo ye ca sādhyā viśve’śvinau marutaścoṣmapāśca |
gandharva yakṣāsura siddha-saṅghā vīkṣante tvāṃ vismitāścaiva sarve || 22 ||

Translation

The Rudras, the Adityas, the Vasus, the Sadhyas, the Vishvedevas, the Ashvins, the Maruts and the Manes, and the hosts of Gandharvas, Yakshas, Asuras, and Siddhas — all gaze upon You in amazement.

Purport

Arjuna further describes as he witnesses the destructive form of Bhagwan Shri Krishna. Not only normal beings but even great deities like Lord Shiva, Adityas, Vasus, Sadhyas, Vishvadevas and Ashvin, Further other higher beings like Maruts, Manes, Gandharvas, Yakshas, Asuras and Sidhas all are amazed seeing the universal form of Bhagwan Shri Krishna consuming everything.

This amazement also proves that Bhagwan Shri Krishna did not reveal his full universal form before and nobody has ever seen Bhagwan Shri Krishna in totality. At all times Bhagwan Shri Krishna appeared in one form or another. Mostly in his four-arm form.
