1 Bhagavad-Gita As It Is Chapter 11.
Text 32-34 Krsna – the Supreme destroyer

2 Text 32 çré-bhagavän uväca kälo 'smi loka-kñaya-kåt pravåddho
lokän samähartum iha pravåttaù åte 'pi tväà na bhaviñyanti sarve ye 'vasthitäù pratyanékeñu yodhäù The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: Time I am, the great destroyer of the worlds, and I have come here to destroy all people. With the exception of you [the Päëòavas], all the soldiers here on both sides will be slain.

3 Krsna – the destroyer It is written in the Vedas that the Supreme Truth destroys everything, even the brähmaëas. yasya brahma ca kñatraà ca ubhe bhavata odanaù måtyur yasyopasecanaà ka itthä veda yatra saù Eventually all the brähmaëas, kñatriyas and everyone else are devoured like a meal by the Supreme. This form of the Supreme Lord is the all-devouring giant, and here Kåñëa presents Himself in that form of all-devouring time.

4 Death – no exception Arjuna was not in favor of the fight.
Lord is saying that even if he did not fight, every one of them would be destroyed, for that was His plan. Death could not be checked. Time is destruction, and all manifestations are to be vanquished by the desire of the Supreme Lord. That is the law of nature. E.g. Garuda trying to save Parrot from death.

5 Text 33 tasmät tvam uttiñöha yaço labhasva
jitvä çatrün bhuìkñva räjyaà samåddham mayaivaite nihatäù pürvam eva nimitta-mätraà bhava savya-säcin Therefore get up. Prepare to fight and win glory. Conquer your enemies and enjoy a flourishing kingdom. They are already put to death by My arrangement, and you, O Savyasäcé, can be but an instrument in the fight.

6 Become part of Krsna’s plan
Savya-säcin refers to one who can shoot arrows very expertly in the field; "Just become an instrument": nimitta-mätram. The whole world is moving according to the plan of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. If one is in full Kåñëa consciousness and his life is devoted to the Lord's transcendental service, he is perfect.

7 Text 34 droëaà ca bhéñmaà ca jayadrathaà ca
karëaà tathänyän api yodha-vérän mayä hatäàs tvaà jahi mä vyathiñöhä yudhyasva jetäsi raëe sapatnän Droëa, Bhéñma, Jayadratha, Karëa and the other great warriors have already been destroyed by Me. Therefore, kill them and do not be disturbed. Simply fight, and you will vanquish your enemies in battle.

8 Merciful Lord Every plan is made by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but He is so kind and merciful to His devotees that He wants to give the credit to His devotees who carry out His plan according to His desire. SP – Lord Chaitanya left that work for me. The plans of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are understood by His mercy, and the plans of the devotees are as good as His plans. SP – we should have temple here (chowpatty), or Juhu temple – prayer to Radha Rasbihari.
