Therefore arise, Arjuna; conquer your enemies and

enjoy the glory of sovereignty. I have already slain

all these warriors; you will only be my instrument.

34

Bhishma, Drona, Jayadratha, Karna, and

many others are already slain. Kill those whom

I have killed. Do not hesitate. Fight in this

battle and you will conquer your enemies.

Having heard these words, Arjuna trembled

in fear. With joined palms he bowed before

Krishna and addressed him stammering.

36

O Krishna, it is right that the world delights

and rejoices in your praise, that all the saints

and sages bow down to you and all evil flees

before you to the far corners of the universe.

37

How could they not worship you, O Lord? You

are the eternal spirit, who existed before Brahma

the Creator and who will never cease to be. Lord

of the gods, you are the abode of the universe.

Changeless, you are what is and what is not, and

beyond the duality of existence and nonexistence.
