The body

is merely a vehicle -

we should use it

and keep it in a good state of repair.

Chapter 1 Shlokas 34, 35

आचार्या: पितर: पुत्रास्तथैव च पितामहा:।

मातुला: श्वशुरा: पौत्रा: श्याला: सम्बन्धिनस्तथा।।३४।।

एतान्न हन्तुमिच्छामि घ्नतोऽपि मधुसूदन।

अपि त्रैलोक्यराज्यस्य हेतो: किं नु महीकृते।।३५।।

Arjuna says: These people standing before us are our:

Preceptors, cousins, grandfathers, uncles, fathers-in-law, grand-children, brothers-in-law and other relations. I would not kill them for the suzerainty of all the three spheres – let alone merely for the acquisition of this land, O Madhusudan, even if I am killed in the bargain.
