Sanjaya said Having thus spoken to Arjuna, Krishna again showed His own form and the great Soul (Krishna), assuming His gentle form, consoled him (Arjuna) who was terrified.

Sanjaya said: Having spoken thus to Arjuna, Vasudeva showed his own form again, and the great one, taking once more his gentle shape, comforted the frightened Arjuna.

Sanjaya narrates the return. Krishna, called Vasudeva, shows his own form again, and the great-souled one, becoming once more gentle in shape, comforts the frightened Arjuna. The word svakam, his own, has been read in different ways: as the four-armed form Arjuna asked for, as the familiar human form, or as both in sequence. The word saumya, gentle or pleasant, is the opposite of ghora, terrible. The scene closes the vision with an act of consolation. The god of the cosmic form is also the friend who calms a trembling companion.
