हतो वा प्राप्स्यसि स्वर्गं जित्वा वा भोक्ष्यसे महीम्। तस्मादुत्तिष्ठ कौन्तेय युद्धाय कृतनिश्चयः॥
hato va prapsyasi svargam jitva va bhokshyase mahim tasmad uttishtha kaunteya yuddhaya krita-nishchayah
Translation
If you die in battle you will attain heaven; if you win, you will enjoy the earth. Therefore, arise, O son of Kunti, resolved to fight!
Commentary
Krishna presents a win-win situation - death in battle leads to heaven, victory leads to earthly enjoyment. Either way, Arjuna cannot lose. This practical wisdom motivates action by removing the fear of outcomes.
