Sanjaya said to Dhritarashtra: The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krishna, while speaking thus to Arjuna, displayed His real four-armed form and at last showed His two-armed form, thus encouraging the fearful Arjuna.

The restoration: Krishna withdraws the cosmic form and returns to His gentle two-armed human appearance. The same person who was the all-devouring cosmic destroyer is now the friend sitting in the chariot. The terrifying and the intimate are one. This is the mystery of the Gita's theology: God is simultaneously the destroyer of worlds and the friend who drives your chariot.
