In this chapter, Arjuna is granted a divine vision to perceive Lord Kṛṣṇa full infinite cosmic form. Śrī Kṛṣṇa then goes on to instruct that only those who have full devotion similar to Arjuna can see and attain union with Bhagavān.    The Gita is one of the most widely translated and commented upon scriptures of the world. It is a revelation to humanity by Lord Krishna to Arjuna, a friend and disciple at a critical moment of his life.  It is a universal scripture containing various strands of teachings suited to all types of people at their stages of development.  It teaches the Supreme Goal to be attained as well as the means for attaining it.
