But O Lord, how shall I get victory over brave warriors such as Bhisma, Drona, Jayadratha and Karna etc.?

Bhisma. Drona, Jayadratha, Kama and other brave warriors have already been killed by Me; fear not. Fight and you will surely conquer your enemies in the war.(34)

What happened after this, Sanjaya?

Sanjaya said—Hearing these words of Lord Krsna, Arjuna, trembling, bowed to Him with joined palms, and bowing again in extreme terror spoke to Lord Krsna in a faltering voice.(35)

Arjuna said—O immanent Lord, it is proper that the world is delighted and is filled with love by chanting Your names and glory; terrified Rãksasas (demons) are fleeing in all directions and all the hosts of Siddhas (Perfected souls) are bowing to you(36)

Why is it proper, Arjuna?

O Lord, it is proper because You are Infinite, You are the Lord of the gods, You are the Base of the universe; You are the Imperishable. You are that which is existent (Sat), and that which is non-existent (Asa') and also that which is beyond both. O Great soul, You are the Progenitor of Brahma himself and the Guide of the guides. So why should the hosts of perfected souls not bow to You?(37)

You are the Prime Deity, the most Ancient Person; You are the supreme Resort of the universe. You are the knower and the knowable and the Supreme Abode. It is You who pervade the entire universe.(38)
