Shloka 14
स विश्वकर्मा स हि विश्वरूप: स विश्वभुग् विश्वसृग् विश्वजिच्च । स शूलभृच्छोणित भृत् कराल- स््तं कर्मभिविंदितं वै स्तुवन्ति
sa viśvakarmā sa hi viśvarūpaḥ sa viśvabhug viśvasṛg viśvajic ca | sa śūlabhṛc choṇitabhṛt karālas taṃ karmabhir vinditaṃ vai stuvanti ||
毗湿摩说：祂是毗湿瓦羯摩——宇宙的工匠；确然，祂具普遍之形。祂是宇宙的享受者、宇宙的创造者、宇宙的征服者。祂执三叉戟，又持盛满鲜血的骷髅钵，现可怖之相。凭借种种事业而名闻世间的，正是那位圣克里希纳，为众人所赞颂。

The core teaching is that the supreme reality (here identified with Śrī Kṛṣṇa) encompasses all functions—creation, enjoyment/sustenance, and conquest—and may manifest both benevolent and fearsome forms. Ethical devotion (bhakti) is presented as discerning this comprehensive divine agency behind the world’s order and events.
In Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma is instructing Yudhiṣṭhira through hymnic praise and theological exposition. In this verse he extols Kṛṣṇa with cosmic titles (Viśvakarmā, Viśvarūpa, etc.) and describes a terrifying iconographic aspect (trident and blood-filled skull-cup), emphasizing Kṛṣṇa’s fame and the universal praise directed toward him.
