अथ चैनं नित्यजातं नित्यं वा मन्यसे मृतम् |
तथापि त्वं महाबाहो नैवं शोचितुमर्हसि || 26||
atha chainaṁ nitya-jātaṁ nityaṁ vā manyase mṛitam
tathāpi tvaṁ mahā-bāho naivaṁ śhochitum arhasi
If, however, you think that the self is subject to constant birth and death, O mighty-armed Arjun, even then you should not grieve like this.

योगेश्वर ततो मे त्वं दर्शयात्मानमव्ययम् || 4||

yogeśhvara tato me tvaṁ darśhayātmānam avyayam
O Lord of all mystic powers, if You think I am strong enough to behold It, then kindly reveal that imperishable cosmic form to me.

यदहङ्कारमाश्रित्य न योत्स्य इति मन्यसे |
मिथ्यैष व्यवसायस्ते प्रकृतिस्त्वां नियोक्ष्यति || 59||
yad ahankāram āśhritya na yotsya iti manyase
mithyaiṣha vyavasāyas te prakṛitis tvāṁ niyokṣhyati
If, motivated by pride, you think, “I shall not fight,” your decision will be in vain. Your own nature will compel you to fight.
