Who am I?

This query of Arjuna, "Who are you?" Now Lord Krishna says, "kalo 'smi loka-ksaya-krt pravrddho. I am the time in which everything dissolves, from which everything comes. It is in time things arise and in time they all dissolve. And I am the Time." The suspense was kept till now, and now it is out. Who am I? I am the grand time. I am the NOW. This now is so deep and that's what we don't realize. We are in now; we are in time; we are in the moment. But we have not realized that this moment is deep and vast. What Arjuna experienced is the vastness and depth of time. It is scary when the mind is small. Now, Lord Krishna says,  "I am the Time of which you are scared. I am with you." When the time is with you, what is it that you need to worry about? There is no fear. Time has already executed all this work. It has already slain all these people. He says, "You just become an instrument of mine. You just be my instrument. You be hollow and empty, and you just do whatever you need to do. Whatever is your duty, you just perform it."
