वेदाविनाशिनं नित्यं य एनमजमव्ययम्। कथं स पुरुषः पार्थ कं घातयति हन्ति कम्॥
vedavinashinam nityam ya enam ajam avyayam katham sa purushah partha kam ghatayati hanti kam
Translation
O Partha, how can a person who knows the soul to be indestructible, eternal, unborn, and imperishable - whom can they slay? Whom can they cause to be slain?
Commentary
Krishna asks a rhetorical question - if you truly understand the soul's immortality, the concepts of killing and being killed lose their meaning. This knowledge removes the basis for Arjuna's grief.
