Why: Krishna says he showed Arjuna this supreme form out of grace, through his own power, radiant, infinite, primal, which no one else has seen before, naming the vision itself as a gift specifically granted, not something Arjuna achieved purely through his own effort.
In life: some of the most significant realizations or experiences in your life arrive less through your own forced effort and more as something given to you at the right moment, a kind of grace rather than pure personal achievement.
Teaching: when reflecting on your own most significant past realizations, consider how much of them arrived as something closer to grace, timing, circumstance, rather than purely your own forced effort, that recognition tends to produce gratitude rather than only self-credit.
