He who knows Me as the enjoyer of sacrifices and austerities, the great Lord of all the worlds and the friend of all beings, attains to peace.

Knowing me as the enjoyer of sacrifices and austerities, the great lord of all the worlds and the friend of all beings, one attains peace.

The chapter closes with Krishna speaking of himself. He is the bhoktṛ, the one who receives all sacrifices (yajña) and austerities; the great lord of all worlds; and the suhṛd, the friend and well-wisher of all beings. One who knows him thus attains peace. After a chapter centred on renunciation, knowledge and the peace of Brahman, the final verse turns to a personal relationship with the divine. The word friend is especially warm: the lord of all is also close to every creature, and knowing this brings peace.
