Hari Om Swamiji, Lord Krishna tells Arjuna in the Gita that nobody dies, everything is pre-determined, Arjun is only a medium. If this is so, even the act of those who murder others should be justified. Was it not that the death of the victim was pre-determined to be at the hands of the murderer? The murderer was only a medium. Pl explain. With due respects.

Dear Lalitha,
Arjuna was a king; his responsibility was to bring the nation in to a Dharmic order.
He had to kill the enemies; but, while killing, mind should not carry a guilty consciousness.
All other killings can not be justified.
