Translations
But you are not able to behold Me with these your own eyes; I give you the divine eye; behold My lordly Yoga.
Yet, since you cannot see Me with mortal eyes, behold, I give you divine sight. Now, see the glory of My sovereignty.
But you are not able to see Me with just this eye of yours. I grant you the divine eye; behold My divine Yoga.
परन्तु तू अपनी इस आँखसे अर्थात् चर्मचक्षुसे मेरेको देख ही नहीं सकता, इसलिये मैं तुझे दिव्य चक्षु देता हूँ, जिससे तू मेरी ईश्वर-सम्बन्धी सामर्थ्यको देख।Commentary
No fleshly eyes can behold Me in My Cosmic Form. One can see It through the divine eye or the eye of intuition. It should not be confused with seeing through the eye or the mind. It is an inner experience. Lord Krishna says to Arjuna I give thee the divine eye, by which you will be able to behold My sovereign form. By it see My marvellous power of Yoga. Anena With this the fleshly eye or the physical eye, the earthly eye. (Cf.VII.25IX.5X.7)
