अन्तवन्त इमे देहा नित्यस्योक्ताः शरीरिणः ।
अनाशिनोऽप्रमेयस्य तस्माद्युध्यस्व भारत ।। २-१८ ।।

antavanta ime dehā-nityasyoktāḥ śarīriṇaḥ ।
anāśino’prameyasya tasmād-yudhyasva bhārata ।। 2.18 ।।

Audio Audio-BG-2.18
 

But these bodies, permeated by the eternal,
indestructible and immeasurable presence, are said to
be terminable. Hence, O descendent of Bharata, fight
indeed. (The fight is between bodies alone, not the
souls).

Bodies alone are engaged in fight. Not the soul, which
is singular and everywhere present. It cannot and does
not fight. In the soul level no death at all ever is.
