Swami Swarupananda, Srimad Bhagavad Gita (1909)
[4]Happy are the Kshatriyas, O Arjuna, who get such a battle, coming by its own accord as an open gate to heaven.
BG 2.32
यदृच्छया चोपपन्नं स्वर्गद्वारमपावृतम्। सुखिनः क्षत्रियाः पार्थ लभन्ते युद्धमीदृशम्॥
yadṛcchayā copapannaṃ svarga-dvāram apāvṛtam / sukhinaḥ kṣatriyāḥ pārtha labhante yuddham īdṛśam
"This battle came to you unsought — the rarest opportunity for a warrior to fulfill their highest duty."
