Passing by those mountains, rich in pure springs and decked with golden ore, Partha gazes upon them together with Keshava. He saw the earth, its body shining with moonbeams, wreathed with cities, and oceans of wondrous appearance, full of many mines. Beholding space, heaven, and earth, going along the path of Vishnu [across the sky], astonished, together with Krishna he sped on, like a loosed arrow.

The flight is called 'vishnupade vrajan,' 'going along the path of Vishnu' -- the sky has of old been called the footstep of Vishnu, and so Arjuna's very path lies, as it were, along the Lord's own trace. 'Kshiptah banah iva,' 'like a loosed arrow,' conveys the swiftness of the vision. It is telling that the whole of creation -- the earth crowned with cities, the oceans -- opens before the astonished gaze, guided by Krishna. The verse teaches that one guided by the Lord surveys creation as though through His own eyes: the devotee's path runs along the path of Vishnu, and the breadth of the world thus disclosed is the gift of God's companionship.
