Like infinity and zero, immortality is also a concept. By introducing it, Krishna increases the canvas of Arjuna’s experience and expands the denominator of his existence. It makes him look at life differently—this life is not the only life we live; it is but one of many lives; our actions have infinite consequences; we have limitless choices, if we open our mind to them. Thus, a shift in imagination brings about a dramatic shift in identity, meaning, value, assumptions and aspirations.
