Every physical form should have limitations in all three dimensions. Even as Arjuna was seeing the Lord in a physical form, being cosmic by nature, the dimensions were incomprehensible.

He exclaimed, "I don't see the limit, not the end or the beginning of your form. Yet, I see you with innumerable arms, bellies, mouths, and eyes all around me."

He saw the Lord with blazing brilliance, wearing a diadem and holding a mace and a disc. The Lord appeared with immeasurable intense radiance of fire and a glowing Sun.

Though Arjuna was given the divine vision by the Lord Himself, it was hard for him to look at the Lord only from one side as He appeared on all sides!
