English Translation of Ramanuja's Sanskrit Commentary
11.7 Here, in this one body of Mine, and even there, gathered together in a single spot, behold the universe with all mobile and immobile entities. Whatever else you desire to see (i.e., Arjunas chances of victory), behold that also in one part of this single body.


Commentary  - Chakravarthi Ji
On this occasion (iha), this universe, which is impossible for you to see completely even if you wander within it for millions of years, is situated in just one part of my body (ekastham). See that universe and whatever else you desire to see, such as your victory or defeat (yac ca anyat) in my body, which is the shelter of the universe, being its cause.


Rudra Vaishnava Sampradaya - Commentary

Lord Krishna is  stating  pasya  behold  now  in  His  visvarupa  or  divine
universal form, this very moment the entire creation with  all  its  movable
and immovable components all integrated together  and  united  as  different
parts of  a  singular  form  in  His  transcendental  universal  form.  This
phenomenal form is impossible of being seen by demigods, humans  and  demons
even in tens of millions of  years  wandering  unobstructed  throughout  all
creation. Everything that exists can be seen in this universal form as  well
as anything else that may be  seen  such  as  past  and  future  along  with
different  conditions  in  creation  including  victory  and  defeat.   Also
prakriti the material substratum  as  well  as  the  brahman  the  spiritual
substratum pervading all existence.


Brahma Vaishnava Sampradaya - Commentary



Shri Vaishnava Sampradaya - Commentary

Now Lord Krishna reveals that the whole  creation  consisting  of  unlimited
moving and stationary things are all contained  in  ihaikastham  meaning  in
only one part of His visvarupa or divine universal form  and  anything  else
that could be desired to be seen is in this location as well.  This  denotes

that there are many other marvels  and  wonders  in  other  parts  that  are
undisclosed.
