Visvarupa Darsana Yogah - Do not be disturbed or bewildered by seeing this terrible form of Mine. With a fearless and joyful heart, behold My human form again.
न वेदयज्ञाध्ययनैर्न दानै- र्न च क्रियाभिर्न तपोभिरुग्रै: |
एवंरूप: शक्य अहं नृलोके द्रष्टुं त्वदन्येन कुरुप्रवीर ||48||

Do not be disturbed or bewildered by seeing this terrible form of Mine. With a fearless and joyful heart, behold My human form again.

  • Ghoram: Terrible or fearsome.
  • Vyapetabhih: Free from fear.
  • Shamam: Calm or peace.

The assurance that austerities, rituals, or sacrifices alone cannot lead to such visions highlights the indispensability of grace and devotion. Krishna underscores that witnessing divinity requires both effort and divine favor.
