Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11, Verse 9 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

In the eleventh chapter, Vishvarupa Darshana Yoga, after Krishna promises to reveal His divine majesty and grants Arjuna the divine eye, Sanjaya tells Dhritarashtra of the pivotal moment: the great Lord of Yoga, Hari, showed Arjuna His supreme, majestic universal form — the revelation that defines the chapter.

✦ As told in scripture

Tradition holds that in this supreme form Krishna displayed the whole of creation contained within Himself, a vision of such majesty that it could be beheld only through the divine eye and by the grace of the great Lord of Yoga.
