EDIT: You might not want to do this. This linear virtual ground must be able to handle at very least 80W (40V times 2A). That is a lot. I'd recommend doing a bit more research into a full, true switchmode. If they're isolated you can use two identical +40V ones joined at one point.
That virtual ground is just a voltage follower set halfway between V+ and V-. It's not defined as anything w.r.t. mains earth unless you already have mains earth connected somewhere else. Feel free to connect it wherever you like.
Additionally, if you need a more precise virtual ground (that one is not), you can fix it up a bit with an op amp. Run those 10R resistors directly between the emitters (not connected to the base diodes). Ground is still between them. Then ground the inverting (-) input of the amp (to the virtual ground), connect the output between the two diodes, and run two equal (4700 to 47K or so) resistors from the noninverting (+) input to each of V+ and V-.
