Krishna invited Arjuna to observe the Cosmic Body or [[Viraj]]) and behold as concentrated within that body (in the person of Krishna) the entire creation and all that is desired to be seen. When Arjuna failed to see that divine form, Krishna bestowed the gift of divine vision – दिव्यं चक्षुः. Thus endowed, Arjuna saw an undisguised reality he could otherwise not see, what he then saw was अद्भुतदर्शनम् (many a wonderful sight) divine in essence, transcendent and all-effulgent, the sight which has never been seen before. Arjuna saw the power of creating diversity in the universe. A similar gift had been bestowed on [[Sanjaya]] by Sage [[Vyasa]]. <ref>{{cite book|title=Srimadbhagavadgita Tattvavivecani|author=Jayadayal Goyandka|publisher=Gita Press|pages=488-490|url= http://books.google.co.in/books/about/Srimadbhagavadgita.html?id=NFWHMwEACAAJ&redir_esc=y }}</ref> | Krishna invited Arjuna to observe the Cosmic Body or [[Viraj]]) and behold as concentrated within that body (in the person of Krishna) the entire creation and all that is desired to be seen.
