Indestructible
Avinashi tu tad viddhi Yena Sarvamidam Tatam
Vinashamavyayasyasya Nakaschit kartum Arhati

Sri Krishna calls the Supreme Reality as Avinashi - that which cannot be destroyed. This indestructible reality pervades through everything. One cannot destroy this unified field which is one whole by any means.
Even as Arjuna is worried about killing another in the war to come, Sri Krishna imparts the Supreme wisdom here that no one can in truth kill or destroy anyone else, because the essence of every being is indestructible and can neither be cut or cleaved.
Take for instance a martial artiste breaking a pile of granite stones with his fist. The essence of the martial artiste's being is space and the stones also are placed in space. Even if the stores are destroyed, nothing ever happens to the space through which this punch is delivered. Sri Krishna goes a step deeper to point out that the essence of ll being is the immutable and indestructible consciousness which can neither be hurt nor killed.
