TRANSLATION O universal
Lord, I wish to see You in Your four-armed form, with helmeted head and
with club, wheel, conch and lotus flower in Your hands. I long to see You
in that form.
PURPORT In the Brahma-samhita
it is stated that the Lord is eternally situated in hundreds and thousands
of forms, and the main forms are those like Rama, Nrsimha, Narayana, etc.
There are innumerable forms. But Arjuna knew that Krsna is the original
Personality of Godhead assuming His temporary universal form. He is now
asking to see the form of Narayana, a spiritual form. This verse establishes
without any doubt the statement of the Srimad-Bhagavatam that Krsna
is the original Personality of Godhead and all other features originate
from Him. He is not different from His plenary expansions, and He is God
in any of His innumerable forms. In all of these forms He is fresh like
a young man. That is the constant feature of the Supreme Personality of
Godhead. One who knows Krsna at once becomes free from all contamination
of the material world.
