Erläuterung

The sentence from the previous verse completes itself with one of the most violent images in the Gita. The warriors of both armies are hurrying into Krishna's mouths, and some are visible stuck between the teeth with their heads crushed. The horror is deliberate. Arjuna had feared killing his kinsmen; now he sees that their deaths are already contained in the divine form, as if they have happened. The verse does not glorify violence. It confronts Arjuna with the reality of time and mortality, which no one, on either side, can escape.
