Thus always keeping the mind balanced, the Yogi, with the mind controlled, attains to the peace abiding in Me, which culminates in liberation.

Constantly joining the self in this way, the yogi whose mind is disciplined reaches the peace that culminates in nirvana and rests in me.

Krishna states the result of this practice. The yogi who constantly joins the self in this way, with a disciplined mind, reaches peace. That peace culminates in nirvāṇa and rests in Krishna himself. The word nirvāṇa, which literally means blowing out or extinguishing, here describes the quenching of restlessness and craving. Traditions differ on how to describe this goal, as absorption in Brahman, as communion with the Lord, or both, but the verse joins the language of meditative stillness with that of relationship to God.
