सम्बन्ध-- अर्जुनकी प्रार्थनापर अब अगले दो श्लोकोर्में भगवान् अपने विश्वर्पकी महिमा और दुर्लभताका वर्णन करते हुए उनचासवें शलोकमें अर्जुनको आश्वासन देकर चतुर्थुजरूप देखनेके लिये कहते हैं-- श्रीभगवानुवाच मया प्रसन्नेन तवार्जुनेदं रूप॑ परं दर्शितमात्मयोगात् | तेजोमयं विश्वमनन्तमाद्य॑ यन्मे त्वदन्येन न दृष्टपूर्वम्
śrībhagavān uvāca | mayā prasannena tavārjunedaṃ rūpaṃ paraṃ darśitam ātmayogāt | tejomayaṃ viśvam anantam ādyaṃ yan me tvadanyena na dṛṣṭapūrvam ||
Wika ng Mapalad na Panginoon: “Arjuna, sa aking kagandahang-loob, ipinakita Ko sa iyo—sa kapangyarihan ng sarili Kong yoga—ang aking kataas-taasang anyo: nagliliwanag sa karilagan, ang mismong sansinukob, walang hanggan, ang pinagmulan. Bago ka, wala pang ibang nakakita ng anyong ito Ko.”

Educational Q&A
The vision of the universal form is not a human achievement but a gift of divine grace: the Lord reveals His supreme, infinite, primordial nature through His own yogic power, emphasizing the rarity of such direct insight and the ethical humility it demands in the devotee.
After Arjuna’s prayer to behold the Lord’s cosmic reality, Kṛṣṇa responds that, out of favor, He has revealed the supreme Viśvarūpa—radiant, all-encompassing, endless, and primal—something no one else had previously seen, thereby preparing Arjuna for further instruction and reassurance.
