Arjuna makes his direct request. 'Evam etad yathā 'ttha tvam ātmānaṁ parameśvara'—thus (evam) as You have spoken (attha) about Yourself (ātmānaṁ), O Supreme Lord (parameśvara). 'Draṣṭum icchāmi te rūpam aiśvaram'—I desire (icchāmi) to see (draṣṭum) Your divine (aiśvaram) form (rūpam). 'Puruṣottama'—O Supreme Person, addressing Krishna with reverence. This is the moment Arjuna requests the vision of the universal form (Vishvarupa). He's not satisfied with just understanding—he wants direct vision. This request sets up Krishna's revelation in the next verses, where he grants Arjuna divine vision to witness the cosmic form.
