As Arjuna does not want to got to war, Lord Krishna must try and convince him to go. He must overcome the fear of death because certainly, everyone does. I find it very interesting how this teachings differ form Gilgamesh. In the teachings, Lord Krishna says You grieve for those beyond grief, and you speak words of insight; but learned men do not grieve for the dead or the living". (pg. 33) Lord Krishna says that grieving is for dull people who do not know. Instead, in Gilgamesh, the dead with more people who grieved lived in heaven. When Enkidu died, Gilgamesh's grieving was long. He even made a statue of Enkidu.

The teaching also says " Death is certain for anyone born and birth is certain for the dead; since the cycle is inevitable, you have no cause to grieve!" (pg. 34) He says that death is certain, and it obviously is, but Gilgamesh was in pursuit of immortality. He didn't want to die, he only grieved, but it was something he could never escape from.
