11.7 Whatever else you wish to see Krishna speaks
इहैकस्थं जगत्कृत्स्नं पश्याद्य सचराचरम्
मम देहे गुडाकेश यच्चान्यद्द्रष्टुमिच्छसि
ihaika-sthaṁ jagat kṛitsnaṁ paśhyādya sa-charācharam
mama dehe guḍākeśha yach chānyad draṣhṭum ichchhasi
See here, gathered in one place, the whole world, moving and unmoving — and whatever else you wish to see, in this body of mine.
Explanation
And whatever else you wish to see.
The whole world gathered in one place, moving and unmoving — in this body of mine.
The offer is open-ended, which is a kind of warning. Arjuna asked to see a form; he is being told he will see everything there is, and he does not withdraw.
