B.G 2.26
atha cainaṁ nityajātaṁ nityaṁ vā manyase mr̥tam। tathāpi tvaṁ mahābāho nainaṁ śocitumarhasi ॥2-26॥
O mighty armed, even if you regard the being as inevitably born, and inevitably dying, it is not right for you to grieve.
Gīta Tātparya 2.26
The word 'nityam' in this verse means 'inevitable' based on context and dictionary.
tiṣṭhatu tāvat ayaṁ vistāraḥ। yāvanmokṣaṁ jīvasya janmamaraṇe svayameva manyase nanu niyamena। tathāpi tāvanmātreṇāpi jñānena śocituṁ nārhasi।
Despite the explanations provided so far, you must still wait to get liberated. In the meantime, birth and death are both subject to the law and unavoidable. With this minimal knowledge, it is clear that grieving is not worth it.
"nityaṁ sanātanaṁ proktaṁ nityaṁ niyatameva ca"। iti śabdanirṇaye।
'The word 'nitya'means that which is eternal. It also means that which cannot be avoided" - states "shabdanirnaya" dictionary.
atra tu niyatam। "jātasya hi dhruvaḥ" iti prakāśanāt ॥26॥
The word 'nitya' should be interpreted as that which is inevitable. Because is the next verse "jātasya hi dhruvaḥ", a similar meaning is expressed using the word "dhruvaḥ".
