In this pivotal moment, Krishna recognizes that the sheer majesty and terrifying scale of the Vishvarupa (Cosmic Form) have eclipsed Arjuna’s capacity to process reality. By commanding Arjuna to shed his fear and bewilderment, Krishna is not merely offering comfort; He is orchestrating a transition from the awe-struck witness of the Divine's destructive power to the intimacy of the personal Beloved. This verse marks the limit of the human ego’s ability to comprehend the Absolute in its totality, signaling that while the Cosmic Form demonstrates God’s control over time and death, the human heart finds its true refuge in the grace of the accessible, human-like avatar. The instruction to 'behold again' indicates that the vision is not a static picture but a dynamic movement of the Divine. Krishna is stripping away the 'veiling' power of Maya—which causes confusion when one witnesses the stark truth of the cosmic order—to restore Arjuna to a state of equilibrium. Only when the mind is 'prīta-manāḥ' (joyful or pleased) can it truly perceive the divine intent behind the apparent chaos of worldly events. Thus, Krishna guides Arjuna to look past the terror of the battlefield, realizing that even the ghoram (terrible) aspect is but an expression of the same Divine essence he loves.

True spiritual vision begins only when the fear of the unknown is replaced by a joyful surrender to the Divine's multifaceted nature.
