Uitleg

Arjuna had asked how one goes beyond the qualities, and Krishna now answers that question directly. Whoever serves him with an unwavering yoga of devotion (bhakti) transcends the three qualities and becomes fit for brahma-bhūya, the state of Brahman. After a chapter of careful analysis, the means named is devotion. This pattern recurs throughout the Gita: knowledge describes the goal, and devotion is offered as a way to reach it that anyone can take. Different traditions understand the state of Brahman differently, but the verse makes devotion the bridge across the qualities.
