एवमुक्त्वा ततो राजन्महायोगेश्वरो हरिः।
दर्शयामास पार्थाय परमं रूपमैश्वरम्।।11.9।।
अनेकवक्त्रनयनमनेकाद्भुतदर्शनम्।
अनेकदिव्याभरणं दिव्यानेकोद्यतायुधम्।।11.10।।
दिव्यमाल्याम्बरधरं दिव्यगन्धानुलेपनम्।
सर्वाश्चर्यमयं देवमनन्तं विश्वतोमुखम्।।11.11।।
Sanjaya said, “O King, having spoken thus, thereafter, Hari, the great Master of Yoga, showed to the son of Prtha the supreme divine form.”
Having many faces and eyes, possessing many wondrous sights, adorned with numerous celestial ornaments, and holding many uplifted heavenly weapons;
Wearing heavenly garlands and apparel, anointed with heavenly scents, abounding in all kinds of wonders, resplendent, infinite, and with faces on all sides.
Osho’s Commentary
Now the narration shifts. Sanjaya, the one with the gift of clairvoyance, is describing the scene to the blind king Dhritarashtra. The event is happening between Krishna and Arjuna. Sanjaya is a third party, a distant observer. And Dhritarashtra is even more distant, listening to a report. The Gita is a four-layered reality. The experience is Arjuna’s. The vision is Krishna’s. The narration is Sanjaya’s. And the blind listening is Dhritarashtra’s. We are all Dhritarashtras, blind, listening to a story of a light we have not seen. Sanjaya describes the form: many mouths, many eyes, full of wonder, adorned with divine ornaments and weapons. A cosmic, all-encompassing form. The human mind is accustomed to seeing beauty in proportion, in limitation. The divine form is beyond all proportion. It is an explosion of infinite possibilities. It is the vision of God not as a beautiful, harmonious being, but as a terrifying, chaotic, all-inclusive reality.
