This image represents the opening of the Bhagavad Gita in the Mahabharata: Arjuna is ready to kick butt in the impending Battle of Kurukshetra and asks his cousin and charioteer Krishna (who just happens to be God Incarnate), to show him the armies arrayed in awesomeness for war.

Krishna then succinctly explains to him the nature of the entire Universe.
