अनेकबाहूदरवक्त्रनेत्रं पश्यामि त्वां सर्वतोऽनन्तरूपम् ।
नान्तं न मध्यं न पुनस्तवादिं पश्यामि विश्वेश्वर विश्वरूप
॥ ११-१६॥
aneka-bāhūdara-vaktranetraṁ paśyāmi
tvāṁ sarvato'nantarūpam | nāntaṁ na
madhyaṁ na punastavādiṁ paśyāmi
viśveśvara viśvarūpa
I see Your infinite form on every side,
with many arms, stomachs, mouths

middle nor the beginning do I see, O
Lord of the Universe, O cosmic form.

When you begin to see 360 degrees in both horizontal and vertical dimensions, there really is no beginning, middle, or end to see. It is a continuum
किरीटिनं गदिनं चक्रिणं च तेजोराशिं सर्वतो दीप्तिमन्तम् ।
पश्यामि त्वां दुर्निरीक्ष्यं समन्ताद् दीप्तानलार्कद्युतिमप्रमेयम्
॥११-१७॥
kirīṭinaṁ gadinaṁ cakriṇaṁ ca
tejorāśiṁ sarvato dīptimantam |
paśyāmi tvāṁ durnirīkṣyaṁ samantād

I see You with crown, club and

everywhere, difficult to look at,
blazing all round like the burning
fire and sun in infinite brilliance.

Some of what he sees is formless energy. He perceives radiance more powerful than a thousand suns, blazing and dazzling, impossible to look at even with his newly endowed divine eye.
त्वमक्षरं परमं वेदितव्यं त्वमस्य विश्वस्य परं निधानम् ।
त्वमव्ययः शाश्वतधर्मगोप्ता सनातनस्त्वं पुरुषो मतो मे
॥ ११=१८॥
tvamakṣaraṁ paramaṁ veditavyaṁ
tvamasya viśvasya paraṁ nidhānaṁ |
tvamavyayaḥ śāśvata-dharma-goptā
sanātanastvaṁ puruṣo mato me
You are the imperishable; the
supreme being worthy to be known.
You are the great treasure house of
this Universe. You are the
imperishable protector of the eternal
order. I believe You are the eternal
being

What Arjuna sees is beyond any sensory perception, something that could be experienced in that moment in time, impossible to express
अनेकबाहूदरवक्त्रनेत्रं पश्यामि त्वां सर्वतोऽनन्तरूपम्।
नान्तं न मध्यं न पुनस्तवादिं पश्यामि विश्वेश्वर विश्वरूप
॥ ११=१६॥
anādi-madhyāntam ananta-vīryam
ananta-bāhuṁ śaśisūrya netram |
paśyāmi tvāṁ dīpta-hutāśavaktraṁ
svatejasā viśvam idaṁ tapantam I see
you without a beginning, middle or
end, infinite in power and many arms,
The sun and the moon being Your
eyes, the blazing fire your mouth, the
whole universe scorched by Your
radiance
