[Lovecraft/Hitchhiker's Guide] What is more mentally scarring: looking at an eldritch horror or being in the total perspective vortex?

The Total Perspective Vortex shows you what is. Eldritch horrors show you what *should not be*.

Both expose you to the vast, unfathomable size of the universe, and our sheer insignificance in the face of all that is, but the Great Old Ones add in a dollop of fifth-dimensional squid-faces. That makes them slightly more mind-breaking.
