When the seer beholds no agent other than the Gunas and knows That which is higher than they, he attains to My Being.

When the seer beholds no doer other than the qualities, and knows what is beyond the qualities, that one attains my state of being.

Now Krishna points the way out. When the seer, the one who truly observes, sees that no agent other than the qualities is acting, and knows what lies beyond them, that person reaches Krishna's own state. This echoes the previous chapter's teaching that all actions are done by nature and the self is not the doer. The key is a double recognition: seeing the qualities as the agents of all change, and knowing the reality beyond them that is untouched. Such seeing releases one from identifying with any of the three, even clarity.
