What are said to be perishable are these bodies of the Self, which is indestructible, inscrutable, eternal. Therefore, fight O Arjuna.
Thus, Arjuna, only these bodies are by nature destructible, therefore fight.
He who thinks this (Self) to be the killer and he mho thinks this killed, both of them do not know; this Self neither kills nor it is killed
You identify yourself with your body and others with their bodies and think that you will kill and the Kauravas will be killed, without knowing the truth. If you think properly, you will realise that you are not the killer and they are not the ones to be killed.
He is never born nor does he die; nor having been, he will ever cease to be. Unborn, eternal, ever-lasting and ancient, he is not killed when the body is killed.

Is this a controversial aspect of Bhagavad Gita ?
