Encounterment With The Cosmic - The Mahakal
Arjuna said:
“That’s wonderful, that’s great, now I long to see your Virat Cosmic Form. O compassionate one, if you feel I deserve it, and if you feel comfortable, please do kindly show that to me…”
Krishna said:
“Sure, sure my dear Partha, there is nothing which I cannot do for you. So you will sec. But through these less powerful eyes it is not possible, so lo-ll give you divine eyes…
divyam dadami te chaksuh
pasya me yoga maisvaiyam
“Behold my four billion mile tall cosmic form…”
Sanjaya said:
“O King, As soon as Krishna said this, Arjuna felt his eyes become four billion times more powerful and then an explosion of light took place like thousands of suns rising simultaneously, and right there he saw a most wonderful, astounding Being, whose face was like his friend but million times larger with all the luminous beings’ vibhuties he had just described before.
“Countless faces & eyes shining all over the sky adorned with celestial silks, garlands & ornaments, perfuming, illumining Arjuna saw and saw and saw startled with awe and shock of surprise he found all the lokas, all the worlds, even the remote past he had studied and oncoming future events as well, present therein, and he saw all assembled, nicely set in one place in Lord’s gigantic, universal form. His hair standing on end, palms folded together, tears of devotion rolling down his face, looking up far, and all around him he prayed,
“Thank you, thank you, Oh ocean-hearted lord, I see, I do see now to you O gigantic Holy Sire, O Lord of the Universe, with innumerable forms and limbs, neither beginning, nor end, nor middle; luminous, effulgent like sun, like moon, like fire, wearing golden crowns, holding discus, mace, and innumerable weapons, You are the shelter of all, protector of dharma, invincible eternal purusha!
“O blazing furious flame, O accumulated blinding ray, O concentrated powers aglow, your light is spreading everywhere. Celestials, humans and all life forms are entering in your form to be recycled and appear in many more forms; all rudras, adityas, visvedevas, marutas, gandharvas, siddhas raksasas too are looking at you, standing, struck with wonder, and running to be punctual in their duties everywhere.
“I see now your colossal arms, countless faces, penetrating eyes of sun and moon, and the fire of your mouth of blazing furious flames; all sons of Dhritarastra with all their armies, along with Bhisma, Drona & Kama, and all of our armies too, O Death incarnate, are fiercefully, speedily entering your mouth. Their heads and bodies are crushed, chewed and broken. Some are hanging between your teeth. Your tongue is long & blazing licking all sides devouring all, swallowing completely your light eI ngulfing…. Oh, who are you? O cosmic, O colossal, O stunning one, be pleased on me, be gracious please. O compassionate one, introduce yourself to me…”
Cosmic Lord said:
“I am the Lord of Change, I am the Lord of Time, Devastation is my job; I am Mahakala. Since devastation cannot exist without creation it is impossible without creation so that too is my nature. You can see devastation, sustenance and creation all in me…all past, all present and all future too, like so many gems, necklaces and finger rings. Vast recycling and rebirthing is always going on; All these Kauravas are already dead, even without your fighting, just see! Therefore,
nimitta matram bhava savyasachin
“Be my instrument, O ambidextrous weapon operator, and fame will wreath you with garlands of victory- Drona, Bhisma, Jayadratha, Kama, all these little creatures are already finished by me! You just do the ritual. Be an actor, do this acting for me dear…”
Sanjaya said:
“O King, hearing these words of Lord Mahakala, Arjuna was thrilled, wearing his beautiful Indra-given crown, with folded palms trembling with overwhelming elation and awe of the compassion of Mahakala, bowing down he said,
“Your holy name & the endless descriptions of your power & sports is thrilling, exciting, and horripulating to the whole world. But evil-minded ones are scared and run down in all directions, while siddhas praise you. You are the shelter of all, you are the abode of all. O Eternal Being, O Cosmic Purusha, this entire world is permeated by you; Oh please accept my humble obeisance.

“Praise, praise to you, without end! Accept my salutations thousand fold.

“O invincible, omniscient, omnipresent One, I bow to you in front and in back, on the left and on the right, above and beneath, enclosing me everywhere. O sovereign Lord of the sea and sky, above and beyond, unaware of your cosmic glory knowing you only as my friend blinded to your omniscience, 1 carelessly in fun & fair hailed you, and screamed at you-’O my friend, O Yadava, Q Krishna, O Comrade’, in jest at the dining table, while walking or sitting or laying down, alone, with you, or with others Oh my Lord, I beg pardon from you, be gracious to me. No one is equal to you; How can there be? Oh, lo, there, I cast myself at your feet, O adorable one…

“O adorable one, I implore you, 1 implore you, as father to his son, friend to his intimate friend, as lovertohis beloved, O holy sire, do please pardon me.
“My Lord I’m terrified seeing your fierceful, all enclosing form; I’m thrilled and horrified too; please show me your former pleasant form, and before that please, your four-armed form too…”
Lord Mahakala said:
“This demonstration of my cosmic form is for you. See for this once and remember my message. O great hero, sacrifice, charity, study of vedas, austerity too cannot make one see it; Be not therefore horrified, but as you feel peace, lo- I assume this four armed form, and this very form you like…”
And he became four-armed Vishnu, then after sometime he resumed his original form of Sri Krishna of his same age, and then, Krishna said:
“None else but you, has seen this form…
bhaktya tvananyaya sakya
ahamevam vidhorjuna
jnatum drastum chatattvena
pravestum cha parantapa
“Only through infinite devotion O Arjuna, am I open to be seen in chatur-bhuja form; also to be known to dive in experience and taste and love and die and be reborn in transcendental plane, therefore,
matkarmakrn matparamo
madbhaktah sangavarjitah
nirvairah sarva bhutesu
Yah sa mam eti pandava
“Toward me, O Arjuna, address all your activities and streams of love too, and silence too; be a friend and well wisher of all, earn more assets of love, make it over-flowing, totally inundating, and bring Me in your fold, then you will know, know, know Me, and thus you will attain Me.
