There, in the body of the God of gods, Arjuna then saw the whole universe resting in one, with its many groups.

There, in the body of the god of gods, the son of Pandu then saw the whole universe gathered in one place, divided in many ways.

Sanjaya reports what Arjuna saw: the entire universe, with all its many divisions, standing as one within the body of the god of gods. The verse holds unity and multiplicity together. The world is not dissolved into a blank oneness; its parts remain distinct, yet all are contained in a single form. This fulfils what Krishna promised earlier in the chapter when he told Arjuna to see the whole world gathered in his body. The calm, almost formal tone of the narration contrasts with the overwhelming nature of what is described, and with Arjuna's reaction in the next verse.
