Arjuna said Of those worshipers, who constantly adore you and who mediate on you as Imperishable and Unmanifest, who are the best acquainted with devotion?

The great One said Those that constantly adore me, fixing their minds on me, and being endued with the highest faith, are considered by me as men having the greatest devotion.

Those, however, who worship the Imperishable, the All pervading, Inconceivable, the Indifferent, the Immutable, the Eternal.

Who, restraining the entire groups of senses, are equal-minded in respect of all things, and are engaged in doing good to all creature, come to Me.

Difficulty to attain me is greater to those who seek for the Unmanifest, for, the way to the Unmanifest is hard to find by man.

I, without delay, become deliver from the ocean of this world of those, who, reposing all actions on Me and considering Me the highest object of attainment, worship Me, mediating on Me with exclusive devotion, and fixing their minds on Me.

Fix your mind on Me alone, place your understanding also on Me, you will thus, after death, live in Me; there is not the least doubt in it.

If, however, O Dhananjaya, you are unable thus to fix your mind on Me, then, try to obtain Me by devotion arising from continued application.

If you are not able even to have continued application, let your actions be performed for Me with your highest aim. For, by performing acts for My sake, you will attain to perfection.

If even this you are unable to do, then resort to devotion in Me. Subduing your Self, abandon the desire for the fruits of actions.

Knowledge is superior to application; mediation is better than knowledge; abandonment of the desire for the fruits of action is better than mediation; place is the immediate result of such abandonment.

He is dear to Me who has no hatred for anything, who is friendly and compassionate, who is free from egoism, who has no vanity, who is alike in pleasure and pain, who is forgiving, contented, always devoted, whose self is subdued, purpose is firm, mind and understanding are fixed on Me.

He is dear to Me, who is not troubled by the world, and the world is not troubled by him; and who is free from joy, fear and anxieties.

He is dear to Me who is pure, diligent, unconcerned, and free from all distress, and desireless for the fruits of actions.

He is dear to Me who has no joy and no aversion, who neither grieves nor desire, who renounces both good and evil and who is full of faith in Me.

He is dear to Me who is alike to friend and foc, in honour and dishonor, in cold and heat, in pleasure and pain, and who is free from attachments.

He is dear to Me who is taciturn, who is contented with anything that come to him, who is homeless, steady-minded, full of faith, and to whom censure and praise are the same.

Those who resort to this righteousness that leads to immortality, and which has been declared to you by Me, such devotees of faith, who regard Me as the highest object for attainment, are the most dear to Me".
