Explication

Krishna makes a bold statement. Even if a person of very bad conduct worships him with undivided devotion, that person should be considered good, because he has made the right resolve. The verse does not excuse wrongdoing; it recognizes that a sincere turning towards God is itself the decisive change. Past actions do not shut anyone out. Such a resolve is the beginning of transformation, as the next verse explains. The verse has offered hope to many who feel unworthy.
