Yes, Jim, precisely right; many thanks! Jed McKenna also brilliantly points out that Krishna's enjoining Arjuna to slay the "opponents" despite Arjuna's love for them is an exact decription of the paring- down process inside one's Self as one ruthlessly destroys all attachments and expectations -- even (perhaps especially) the sattvic ones -- to stand alone, yet upholding the Whole. The whole cosmos one is aware of at any moment is a perfect reflection of (projection of) what is going on inside one's own body. One's own bodymind is the "bindu-point" through which the entire cosmos plays out. As one takes responsibility for one's "outer" perceptions and tracks them back or withdraws them back to the inner process, into what one is feeling and thinking inside, and heals the resistance/denial/projection/suffering inside, the outer shifts accordingly.
