Arjuna said:

By my hearing the instructions

You have kindly given me about these most confidential spiritual subjects,

my illusion has now been dispelled.

2
O lotus-eyed one

I have heard from You in detail 
about the appearance and disappearance 
of every living entity and have realized 
Your inexhaustible glories.

Comment: the lotus-eye as the head of the Buddha represents knowledge and conscious understanding of the all-unified multiple aspects and manifestations of Divinity.

O greatest of all personalities, O supreme form,

though I see You here before me in Your actual position,

 as You have described Yourself,

I wish to see how You have entered into this cosmic manifestation.

I want to see that form of Yours.

4
If You think that I am able to behold Your cosmic form, O my Lord,

O master of all mystic power,

then kindly show me that unlimited universal Self.

5
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said:

My dear Arjuna, O son of Prtha, see now My opulences,

hundreds of thousands of varied divine and multicolored forms.

6
O best of the Bharatas,

see here the different manifestations of Adityas, Vasus, Rudras, Asvini-kumaras and all the other demigods.

Behold the many wonderful things which no one has ever seen or heard of before.

7
O Arjuna, whatever you wish to see, behold at once in this body of Mine!

This universal form can show you whatever you now desire to see and whatever you may want to see in the future.

Everything moving and nonmoving is here completely,

In one place.

8
But you cannot see Me 
with your present eyes.

Therefore I give you divine eyes.

Behold My mystic opulence!

Comment: the Pineal gland inside the Human brain or Third-eye is an actual biological gland that when naturally awake allows inter dimensional connectivity

Sanjaya said:

O King, having spoken thus,

the Supreme Lord of all mystic power,

the Personality of Godhead, displayed His universal form to Arjuna.

10-11
Arjuna saw in that universal form unlimited mouths, 
unlimited eyes, unlimited wonderful visions.

The form was decorated with many celestial ornaments 
and bore many divine upraised weapons. 

Comment: the expression weapon, as it was interpreted and translated, actually referred to celestial dimensions and different potentials and possibilities of divine manifestation.

He wore celestial garlands and garments, 
and many divine scents were smeared over His body.

All was wondrous, brilliant, unlimited, all-expanding.

12
If hundreds of thousands of suns were to rise at once into the sky,

their radiance might resemble the effulgence of the Supreme Person in that universal form.

13
At that time Arjuna could see in the universal form of the Lord the unlimited expansions of the universe situated in one place although divided into many, many thousands.

14
Then, bewildered and astonished,

his hair standing on end,

Arjuna bowed his head to offer obeisances and with folded hands

began to pray to the Supreme Lord.

15
Arjuna said:

My dear Lord Krishna, I see assembled in Your body all the demigods and various other living entities.

I see Brahma sitting on the lotus flower,

as well as Lord Shiva

and all the sages and divine serpents.

Comment: divine serpents are waves of light and sound with creational purpose

16
O Lord of the universe, O universal form,

I see in Your body many, many arms, bellies, mouths and eyes, expanded everywhere, without limit.

I see in You no end, no middle and no beginning.

17
Your form is difficult to see because of its glaring effulgence,

spreading on all sides, 
like blazing fire or the immeasurable radiance of the sun.

Yet I see this glowing form everywhere, 
adorned with various crowns, clubs and discs.

18
You are the supreme primal objective.

You are the ultimate resting place of all this universe.

You are inexhaustible, and You are the oldest.

You are the maintainer of the eternal religion, the Personality of Godhead.

This is my opinion.

19
You are without origin, middle or end.

Your glory is unlimited.

You have numberless arms, and the sun and moon are Your eyes.

I see You with blazing fire coming forth from

Your mouth, burning this entire universe by Your own radiance.

20
Although You are one,

You spread throughout the sky and the planets and all space between.

O great one, seeing this wondrous and terrible form,

all the planetary systems are perturbed.

21
All the hosts of demigods are surrendering before You and entering into You.

Some of them, very much afraid, are offering prayers with folded hands.

Hosts of great sages and perfected beings, crying "All peace!"

are praying to You by singing the Vedic hymns.

22
All the various manifestations of Lord Shiva, the Adityas,

 the Vasus, the Sadhyas, the Visvedevas,

the two Asvis, the Maruts, the forefathers, the Gandharvas,

the Yaksas, the Asuras and the perfected demigods

are beholding You in wonder.

23
O mighty-armed one,

all the planets with their demigods are disturbed at seeing Your great form,

with its many faces, eyes, arms, thighs, legs, and bellies 
and Your many terrible teeth;

and as they are disturbed, so am I.

Comment: square waves also represent cosmic Geometries, Wisdom, hence angles within the Wheels of Time, the Kalachakra

KalaChakra

Comment: In Ancient Times during the last expansion creational cycle  those Humanities were unified by divine consciousness and high knowledge was common place. Square waves and angles representing this aspect of Divine Consciousness here below are expressed in the Pyramid of Chichen Itza, Mexico. 

24
O all-pervading Vishnu,

seeing You with Your many radiant colors touching the sky,

Your gaping mouths, and Your great glowing eyes,

my mind is perturbed by fear.

I can no longer maintain my steadiness or equilibrium of mind.

Comment: during the Night cycles of Consciousness illusions of separation and hallucination of fear may occur

25
O Lord of lords, O refuge of the worlds,

please be gracious to me.

I cannot keep my balance seeing thus Your blazing deathlike faces and awful teeth.

In all directions I am bewildered.

26-27
All the sons of Dhrtarastra, along with their allied kings, and Bhisma, Drona, Karna

and our chief soldiers also

are rushing into Your fearful mouths.

And some I see trapped with heads smashed between Your teeth.

28
As the many waves of the rivers flow into the ocean,

so do all these great warriors enter blazing into Your mouths.

29
I see all people rushing full speed into Your mouths,

as moths dash to destruction in a blazing fire.

30
O Vishnu, I see You devouring all people from all sides with Your flaming mouths.

Covering all the universe with Your effulgence,

You are manifest with terrible, scorching rays.

Comment: cycles and waves of Light do intentionally transform Matter and renew Consciousness

31
O Lord of lords, so fierce of form,

please tell me who You are.

I offer my obeisances unto You; please be gracious to me.

You are the primal Lord.

I want to know about You, for I do not know what Your mission is.

32
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said:

Time I am, the great destroyer of the worlds,

and I have come here to destroy* all people.

With the exception of you [the Pandavas],

all the soldiers here on both sides will be slain.

Comment: The rotation of the Wheels of Time, or Kalachakra, transforms Matter and renews Consciousness to jump start a new cosmic project; in this case the description was referring to a transformation cycle set in motion for all cosmic dimensions beneath the Pan Devas

33
Therefore get up.

Prepare to fight and win glory.

Conquer your enemies and enjoy a flourishing kingdom.

They are already put to death by My arrangement, and you,

O Savyasaci, can be but an instrument in the fight.

Comment: The soul is an experimentation vehicle and an essence of Light; the "fight" is an unfortunate expression for an inner struggle that accompanies forgetfulness of the Soul of what it is, of what it came to learn by incarnating, and of what it needs to do and accomplish to equalize the sum of all its experiences  in order to safely return to higher dimensions of Eternity. This same exact knowledge was conserved on the Planet under the philosophical designations of catharsis in Christianity and jihad in Islam.

34
Drona, Bhisma, Jayadratha, Karna and the other great warriors have already been destroyed by Me.

Therefore, kill them and do not be disturbed.

Simply fight, and you will vanquish your enemies in battle.

Comment: the inner voice is referring to transcending inner shadows of forgetfulness of existential purpose as commented before

Solar Fire

35
Sanjaya said to Dhrtarastra:

O King, after hearing these words from the Supreme Personality of Godhead,

the trembling Arjuna offered obeisances with folded hands again and again.

He fearfully spoke to Lord Krishna in a faltering voice, as follows.

36
Arjuna said: O master of the senses,

the world becomes joyful upon hearing Your name,

and thus everyone becomes attached to You.

Although the perfected beings offer You their respectful homage,

the demons are afraid, and they flee here and there.

All this is rightly done.

37
O great one, greater even than Brahma,

 You are the original creator.

Why then should they not offer their respectful obeisances unto You?

O limitless one, God of gods, refuge of the universe!

You are the invincible source, the cause of all causes,

transcendental to this material manifestation.

38
You are the original Personality of Godhead,

 the oldest, the ultimate sanctuary of this manifested cosmic world.

You are the knower of everything, and You are all that is knowable.

You are the supreme refuge, above the material modes.

O limitless form! This whole cosmic manifestation is pervaded by You!

39
You are air, and You are the supreme controller!

You are fire, You are water, and You are the moon!

 You are Brahma, the first living creature, and You are the great-grandfather.

I therefore offer my respectful obeisances unto You a thousand times,

and again and yet again!

40
Obeisances to You from the front, from behind and from all sides!

O unbounded power, You are the master of limitless might!

You are all-pervading, and thus You are everything!

Comment: Everything and everyone and every being is a fractal part of Divinity 

41-42
Thinking of You as my friend, I have rashly addressed You "O Krishna," "O Yadava," "O my friend," not knowing Your glories.

Please forgive whatever I may have done in madness or in love.

 I have dishonored You many times, jesting as we relaxed, lay on the same bed, or sat or ate together,

sometimes alone and sometimes in front of many friends.

O infallible one, please excuse me for all those offenses.

43
You are the father of this complete cosmic manifestation, of the moving and the nonmoving.

You are its worshipable chief, the supreme spiritual master.

No one is equal to You, nor can anyone be one with You.

How then could there be anyone greater than You within the three worlds,

O Lord of immeasurable power?

link: Vishnu

44
You are the Supreme Lord, to be worshiped by every living being.

Thus I fall down to offer You my respectful obeisances and ask Your mercy.

As a father tolerates the impudence of his son, or a friend tolerates the impertinence of a friend,

or a wife tolerates the familiarity of her partner,

please tolerate the wrongs I may have done You.

45
After seeing this universal form, which I have never seen before,

I am gladdened, but at the same time my mind is disturbed with fear.

 Therefore please bestow Your grace upon me and reveal again Your form as the Personality of Godhead,

O Lord of lords, O abode of the universe.

46
O universal form, O thousand-armed Lord,

I wish to see You in Your four-armed form, with helmeted head and with club, wheel, conch and lotus flower in Your hands.

I long to see You in that form.

Comment: the four-arm wheel symbolizes cosmic central eternal motion,  integration of essences and experiences, and renewal of plans, as well 

47
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said:

My dear Arjuna, happily have I shown you, by My internal potency,

this supreme universal form within the material world.

No one before you has ever seen this primal form, unlimited and full of glaring effulgence.

48

O best of the Kuru warriors,

no one before you has ever seen this universal form of Mine,

for neither by studying the Vedas, nor by performing sacrifices, nor by charity, nor by pious activities,

nor by severe penances can I be seen in this form in the material world.

49
You have been perturbed and bewildered by seeing this horrible feature of Mine.

Now let it be finished. My devotee, be free again from all disturbances.

With a peaceful mind you can now see the form you desire.

50
Sanjaya said to Dhrtarastra:

The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krishna, having spoken thus to Arjuna,

displayed His real four-armed form and at last showed His two-armed form,

thus encouraging the fearful Arjuna.

51
When Arjuna thus saw Krishna in His original form, he said:

O Janardana, seeing this human like form, so very beautiful,

I am now composed in mind,

and I am restored to my original nature.

52
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said:

My dear Arjuna, this form of Mine you are now seeing is very difficult to behold.

Even the demigods are ever seeking the opportunity to see this form,

which is so dear.

53
The form you are seeing with your transcendental eyes cannot be understood simply by studying the Vedas,

nor by undergoing serious penances, nor by charity, nor by worship.

It is not by these means that one can see Me as I am.

54
My dear Arjuna,

only by undivided devotional service can I be understood as I am,

standing before you, and can thus be seen directly.

Only in this way can you enter into the mysteries of My understanding.

55
My dear Arjuna,

he who engages in My pure devotional service,

free from the contaminations of fruitive activities and mental speculation,

he who works for Me, who makes Me the supreme goal of his life,

and who is friendly to every living being

he certainly returns to Me.

I say

A strike of Heavenly Fire sparks my inner Light. By an act of Consciousness I elevate myself and as a result I can access vaster realms of Perception. By changing my perception of the Past, I renew the Present and smile at a bright eternal Future

And state that

By elevating myself and ascending to higher Dimensions of Existence and Perception I can elevate the “collective soul” of Humanities, as well.

Robert Julius Oppenheimer, Atomic Weapons and the Bhagavad Gita 

It is said that,

Shortly before the United States entered World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt approved a crash program to develop an atomic bomb. In September of 1942, Major General Leslie Groves of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was appointed director of what became known as the Manhattan Project: a research and development project that produced the first nuclear weapons during World War II. 

“Manhattan” was led by the United States with the support of the United Kingdom and Canada. Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer was the director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory that designed the actual bombs.  Trinity was the code name of the first detonation of a nuclear weapon, conducted by the United States Army on July 16, 1945, as part of said Manhattan Project. 

The code name "Trinity" was assigned by J. Robert Oppenheimer, the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory, after a poem by John Donne:

Trinity

   O blessed glorious Trinity,
Bones to philosophy, but milk to faith,
   Which, as wise serpents, diversely
Most slipperiness, yet most entanglings hath, 

              As you distinguish'd, undistinct,
              By power, love, knowledge be,
Give me a such self different instinct,
Of these let all me elemented be,

Of power, to love, to know you unnumbered three.

Mr. Donne and Mr. Oppenheimer must have all been thinking of the sacred tri-unity of Universal Creation (or Trinity).  

Interesting choice of name - Trinity - and interesting choice of imagery for impersonating the powers of creation.  

Where these Humans helplessly re-enacting their peculiar understanding of events of Ancient Times described in sacred texts left behind by other Humanities? 

“Gorkha, flying a swift and powerful vimana [extraterrestrial spacecraft]
hurled a single projectile charged with the power
of the Universe.

An incandescent column of
smoke and flame, as bright as ten thousand suns, rose with
all its splendor.
It was an unknown weapon, an iron thunderbolt, a gigantic
messenger of death, which reduced to ashes the entire race
of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas.
The corpses were so burned as to be unrecognizable.
Hair and nails fell out; Pottery broke without apparent cause,
and the birds turned white.
…After a few hours all foodstuffs were infected…
…to escape from this fire the soldiers threw
themselves in streams to wash themselves and their
equipment.” — The Mahabharata

Is there more between Heaven and Earth, and Inner Earth than is currently conceived by Human Philosophies?

Can the past be changed by a powerful act of Superior Perception through inter dimensional Time tunnels? 

Is this Humanity being taught to be masters and creators of their own Future without realization so?

Uni-verse can re-arrange and reinvent its own Creation. The answer must be a tri-unity Yes. 

As narrated in the Gita during the night cycles of Consciousness illusions of separation and hallucination of fear may occur. These are the infamous Contraction periods.

Before the imminent collapse Arjuna cries out:

24

 O all-pervading Vishnu,

seeing You with Your many radiant colors touching the sky,

....

Your gaping mouths, and Your great glowing eyes,

my mind is perturbed by fear.

I can no longer maintain my steadiness or equilibrium of mind.

Indeed, under certain cosmic circumstances strenuous forces of re-creation may cause hallucinations of fear and other disturbances in these evolving biological creatures

Mr. Roerich

Inter-American Peace Treaty signed at the White House under Franklin D. Roosevelt

Quoting Mr. Oppenheimer from NBC’s 1965 The Decision to Drop the Bomb: 

“I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” He was quoting verse 32 Chapter 11.  

Re-designing Perceptions of Reality

Verse 32

Announcing the onset of a New Era

The Supreme Personality of Godhead said:

Time I am, the great transformer of worlds,

and I have come here to transform all people.

With the exception of you the Pan Devas

all the soldiers of light here on both sides will be transmuted.

The duality:
 Love and Wisdom

The concept of transformation is one of transubstantiation or alchemy and transcendence.   

Has this Humanity lost inner steadiness and equilibrium of mind due to night cycles or contraction cycles of biological recreation?

Does this Humanity understand said cycles of cosmic re-creation?

Does this Humanity know its real cosmic genetic origin and its real purpose in the Universe of biological entities?

Is it Time to unveil circumstances they are not aware of yet?

Is complete forgetfulness the real reason why they fail to understand the origin of sacralized texts and of ancient majestic ruins?

Are they waiting for somebody or something that should somehow return to help re-ignite collective Consciousness? Is Knowledge the real Key to the Kingdom of Heaven? 

Considering many parameters of Cosmic Plans at that time unknown to Mr. Oppenheimer and to the current world elite, including all religious leaders, one is tempted to think now of another one of Mr. Oppenheimer's favorite authors, William Shakespeare.
