ಓ ಗೋವಿಂದನೇ! ನಿಮ್ಮ ಸನಾತನ ರೂಪವನ್ನೂ ನಾನು ಕಾಣುತ್ತೇನೆ. ಹಾಗೆಯೇ, ಅಪಾರ ತೇಜಸ್ಸಿನ ವಾಯುರೂಪವನ್ನು ಧರಿಸಿ ನೀವು ಮೇಲಿನ ಏಳು ಲೋಕಗಳನ್ನು ವ್ಯಾಪಿಸಿ ಆವರಿಸಿರುವುದನ್ನೂ ನಾನು ನೋಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.

The verse emphasizes the Lord’s eternal nature and all-pervading presence: the Supreme can be realized as the timeless form behind all manifestations, and also as the subtle, life-sustaining force (like wind) that permeates the cosmos. Ethically, it supports a dharmic worldview in which devotion and right understanding reveal the unity behind diverse forms.
Bhishma, speaking to Govinda (Krishna), describes a direct vision of Krishna’s eternal form and His cosmic pervasion, likening it to the wind of immeasurable radiance filling the seven higher realms. It is a moment of reverent recognition of Krishna’s divine, world-sustaining aspect within the Shanti Parva’s reflective teachings.
