Explanation
Krishna draws the practical lesson. The yogi who knows these two paths is not deluded. Therefore Arjuna should be joined in yoga at all times. The verse shifts the focus from the timing of death to constant inner discipline. Knowing the paths frees the yogi from anxiety about the moment of departure, because one who is always joined in yoga is always on the path of light. The command to Arjuna echoes the earlier instruction to remember Krishna at all times and fight.
