CLAWS Publications 36-37 2 Divya-Drishti (Hindi: दिव्य-饃दि) is a Sanskrit word meaning divine vision, also known as Yoga-Drishti, which refers to 'divine perception' which is intuitive perception or cognition that carries with it an intrinsic certainty and conviction. In Mahabharat, Krishna invited Arjuna to observe the Cosmic Body or Viraj and behold it as concentrated within that body (in the person of Krishna) the entire creation and all that is desired to be seen. When Arjuna failed to see that divine form, Krishna bestowed the gift of divine vision – दिव्य-饃दि. Thus endowed, Arjuna saw an undisguised reality he could otherwise not see, what he then saw was अि्भुति셍शनम् (many a wonderful sight) divine in essence, transcendent and all-effulgent, the sight which has never been seen before. Arjuna saw the power of creating diversity in the universe. True to this, Divya-Drishti is a biennial forum, organised by the Indian Army in collaboration the Centre for Land Warfare Studies (CLAWS). The Conclave will include domain experts from across the globe to discuss and deliberate on a particular theme related to defence, security and land warfare strategy. 3 THE INDIAN ARMY The Indian Army, as an instrument of national power, has been in service of the nation in both peace and war.
