Context:
न त्वेवाहं जातु नासं न त्वं नेमे जनाधिपाः ।
न चैव न भविष्यामः सर्वे वयमतः परम् ।।
- Bhagavad Gita - 2.12

Meaning: Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor these kings of men.
Never will there be a time hereafter when any of us shall cease to be.

श्री भगवानुवाच
अशोच्यानन्वशोचस्त्वं प्रज्ञावादांश्च भाषसे।
गतासूनगतामूंश्च नानुशोचन्ति पण्डिताः ।।
- BhagavadGita - 2.11

Meaning: The Lord said: O Arjuna! You grieve for those for whom there need be no sorrow, yet you speak words of wisdom. he wise do not grieve for the dead or living.

~ In Prakriti, there is really no death; there is just transformation.
~ Why is Krishna advising Arjun not to grieve?
~ Why do we grieve for others?
~ Why is Arjun trying to pretend to be wise?
~ Who is a wise man?
~ How is consciousness itself dead?
~ Why there is no difference then between me and the Rock?
~ Why does no individual exist?
