Visvarupa Darsana Yogah - Not through the Vedas, austerities, charity, or sacrifices can I be seen in this universal form by anyone other than you, O Arjuna.
श्रीभगवानुवाच मया प्रसन्नेन तवार्जुनेदं रूपं परं दर्शितमात्मयोगात् |
तेजोमयं विश्वमनन्तमाद्यं यन्मे त्वदन्येन न दृष्टपूर्वम् ||47||

Not through the Vedas, austerities, charity, or sacrifices can I be seen in this universal form by anyone other than you, O Arjuna.

  • Tapobhir: Austerities.
  • Drishta-purvam: Seen before.
  • Kuru-pravir: Scion of the Kuru dynasty.

Krishna reveals the uniqueness of the experience granted to Arjuna, emphasizing that such divine visions are rare and beyond the reach of ordinary perception, even for celestial beings or those with extensive spiritual practice.
