Fly unto Him for refuge with all thy being, O Arjuna; by His grace thou shalt obtain supreme peace (and) the eternal abode.

Take refuge in him alone with your whole being, Bharata. By his grace you will attain supreme peace and the eternal abode.

Krishna urges Arjuna to take refuge in that Lord alone, with his whole being. By his grace Arjuna will attain supreme peace and the eternal abode. After the image of beings moved as if by a machine, the verse offers freedom through surrender. Refuge (śaraṇa) here means wholehearted trust, not passive resignation. The verse turns the teaching about divine control into an invitation to a relationship of faith.
