### [c7.207](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c7.207)

By favour, through My mystic form divine  
Arjuna, thou My form supreme hast seen,  
Resplendent, Universal, Infinite,  
Primeval, seen before by none but thee.  
Yet not by Vedas, nor by sacrifice,  
By study, alms, good works, or rites austere  
Can this My form be seen by mortal man,  
O Prince of Kurus! but by thee alone.¹
