Chapter 11 : Universal Form of Shri Krishna

Ch 11 : Sh 40

नमः पुरस्तादथ पृष्ठतस्ते नमोऽस्तु ते सर्वतः एव सर्व।
अनन्तवीर्यामितविक्रमस्त्वंसर्वं समाप्नोषि ततोऽसि सर्वः ॥

Transliteration

namaḥ purastād atha pṛṣṭhas-te namo’stu te sarvata eva sarva |
ananta-vīryāmita-vikramas-tvaṃ sarvaṃ samāpnoṣi tato’si sarvaḥ ||

Translation

[Arjuna said]
Obeisance from the front, obeisance from the rear and obeisance from all the sides as well. O Lord who is of endless prowess and of boundless glory, you envelop everything. Therefore You are, verily, everything.

Purport

Mesmerized and terrified with the varied views in the Universal form of Shri Krishna, Arjuna bows down to Shri Krishna again and again and says words in praise and whatever he witnessed in front of his naked eyes.

Arjuna saw the endless expansion of Shri Krishna, endless powers and endless manifestation. He(Arjuna) witnesses Shri Krishna is verily everything in this entire universe.
