KRISHNA TO ARJUNA
Narr:- That patience with which, Yuga after Yuga, thou hadst slain persons having the quality of darkness for their weapons, as also terrible Kshatriyas, and Asuras born of pride, in many a battle--with that patience do thou slay Karna today. Putting forth thy might, strike off the head of that foe of thine with this Sudarsana, of edge keen as a razor, that I give unto thee, like Sakra striking off the head of his foe Namuci, with the thunderbolt.
Note:- ARJUNA COULD HAVE FINISHED THE KURUSHETRA BATTLE IN A SINGLE DAY SHOULD HE HAD USED THE VAJRA,PASHUPATA OR THE BRAHMASHIRA BUT HE PREFERRED NOT TO DO SO..& KARNA WOULD HAVE BEEN BLOWN TO PIECES SHOULD ARJUNA HAD LAUNCHED THE VAJRA,THE PASHUPATA OR THE BRAHMASHIRA ON KARNA!

WHY ARJUNA DIDNT USE HIGHER DIVYASTRAS IN KURUSHETRA BATTLE??
Read what Rishi Narada Muni adviced Arjuna before the start of Kurushetra Battle:
Narrative:
Narada arrived (there) and addressed Partha in these sweet words, 'O Arjuna, Arjuna, do thou not discharge the celestial weapons. These should never be discharged when there is no object (fit). And when there is an object (present), they should also by no means be hurled, unless one is sore pressed; for, O son of the Kurus, to discharge the weapons (without occasion), is fraught with great evil. And, O Dhananjaya, being duly kept as thou hast been instructed to these powerful weapons will doubtless conduce to thy strength and happiness. But if they are not properly kept, they, O Pandava, will become the instrument for the destruction of the three worlds. So thou shouldst not act in this way again. O Ajatasatru, thou too wilt behold even these weapons, when Partha will use them for grinding (thy) enemies in battle.'"

Arjuna simply respected the words of Narada Muni!
