Chapter 11 verse 25
“O Bhagwan, having seen your many mouths bearing your terrible teeth, resembling the raging fire at the time of annihilation, I forget where I am and do not know where to go. O Lord of lords, you are the shelter of the universe; please have mercy on me.”
Arjuna has lost his bearings having witnessed the cosmic form of Bhagwan Krishna with infinite mouths, teeth and the raging fire of destruction at the time of dissolution of the universe. He was not expecting this form of His hitherto cousin and friend and feels lost, directionless and disoriented. He is asking for mercy from Bhagwan thinking that Krishna is angry with him for some reason or other. What should be our relationship with almighty-one of fear and trepidation or love and devotion? How does one get from fear to love for God? God is our friend, fellow traveler in our lives and protector of dharma. One who follows dharma and lives a righteous life doesn’t need to fear almighty. God loves everyone of His creation. There is nothing to fear!
