Arjuna's Blessed Privilege 47-49
1 Gita Sloka  every day - Chapter 11 - Viswarupa Darsana Yoga - Sloka 47


Shri Bhagavan Uvacha
Maya prasad tena tava arjuna idam rupam param darsha itam atma yogat I
Tejah mayam vishwam anantam  adyam yat me tvat anyena na drishta purvam II sloka 47
मया प्रसद तेन तव अर्जुन इदं रूपं परं दर्श इतं आत्म योगात I
तेजः मयं विश्रं अनन्तं आध्यम यत में त्वत अन्येन न दृष्ट पूर्वं II स्लोक ४७ 

The Blessed Lord said

Graciously have I shown you, O Arjuna, this Supreme form, by my yoga power, this resplendent, universal, infinite, primeval, which none but you has ever seen.

Spiritual exuberance and the experienceis the common inheritance of all. Exclusiveness and favouritism have no place in it. Arjuna is beset with a worldly problem. The solution for it has to be found in the background of the cosmic functioning of the Lord. Along with it a peep into the beyond also is provided for him by the grace of the lord. Each man finds the reflection of his own face in the mirror.Similarly Arjuna finds problems peculiar to himself solved in the cosmic setting. His peculiar case is no doubt a solitary incident fittingly solved by the Lord.
