B.G 11.23 - 33 (Universal Form of Krsna) Verses Summary

All mighty armed one seeing your universal form and many teeth I'm so terrified. Your gaping mouth etc - my mind is so perturbed and can't hold it.

Arjuna after seeing the universal form is seeing everyone rushing into the mouth of the Universal form. He is so perplexed as his understanding of Krsna is becoming better and better. He is first feeling that how low was he that he thought Krsna is his friend and now Arjuna is perplexed seeing the gigantic form.

Example - When prabhuji was driving and a lound noise of a truck hitting a bicyle and he died on the spot - this incident caused such an impact on him. Similarly imagine when a small incident like this can cause such an impact how would the universal fearful form of Krsna have an impact on Arjuna.

Krsna's form is so loving as a cowheard boy and it doesn't sometimes have a strong impact or put fear in our hearts and hence sometime it is so important to be fearful. Sometimes helps to be shaken up and take KC seriously. Now by having Krsna show his gigantic form he is putting fear in Arjuna's heart so he can be more serious and understand that the material world is temporary and he will have some awe and reverance for Krsna and hence none of us should take KC lightly and actually take him and his Vrindavan pasttimes very seriously.

Same way Duryodhana took Krsna lightly and he thinks that by his soldiers he will capture him. But little did he know that it was Krsna who would bring everything to a stand still.

Similarly, devotees enter into our lives so when Krsna's universal form will enter into our lives we will become serious about KC. Just as why deamons are there so Demigods can go to Krsna for help. Same way Devotees keep reminding us that Krsna is our Goal and Boss! We should NFK AND ARK. This Universal form makes us have awe and reverence for Krsna and we understand that Krsna is everything. So now Arjuna is offereing his prayers - Krsna you are the supreme. Please tell me what is happening Krsna then says:

Time I am and reveals his mission. Krsna says all of these are already dead and you Arjuna have a chance to be an instrument and hence have a Golden chance to go back to Godhead. Similarly Mahaprabhu has already determined that every town and village it is going to happen. Ex- SP the senapati of this movement was an instrument. So the question is, do you want to be an instrument of this preaching mission of SP. If we don't, the mission isn't stopping. It will still happen. Hence, we need to take it up seriously, so we can't get the credit of this. Just desire and act and Krsna will make arrangements. Ex - Arjuna couldn't have won against all maharathis, only by K's help it was made possible. Similarly all we need is a willing heart to serve Krsna and Krsna will take care of you and will help you at every step.

Devotees, don't want to take any credit, but just want to serve to give pleasure to their GM.They are only thinking that let me just serve my GM so they can get credit not me. Just do it as an offering to my GM and when you have this mood Krsna will have mercy on you. And when all the glory and credit come, the pure devotee just wants to pass that credit to our GM. We are just servants to pass that credit to our GM. We are just servants of the servants of the servant of SP and more glory that comes to us, (we want more and more to come to us), so we can offer to our GM. To take the opportunity to serve the vaishnavas is the best mood to have and all we want is the GM mercy and hence we become an instrument take the opportunity to serve and take credit to offer to GM. The reason we chant is to ask for seva and when seva comes, you should take it with all arms. We shouldn't run aways from it saying, sorry we are busy!!! Try to do it with your best ability. Next Friday is Karthik so let us all pray that we become more sincere and chant more, read Krsna katha more, SB and do everything very sincerely!
