Doing all actions always having taken refuge in Me, by My grace he obtains the eternal indestructible state of being.

Even while always performing all actions, taking refuge in me, by my grace he reaches the eternal, imperishable state.

Krishna adds that this goal is not only for those who withdraw from the world. Even one who is always engaged in all kinds of action, if he takes refuge in Krishna, reaches by his grace (prasāda) the eternal and imperishable state. Here the path of action and the path of devotion join. The verse reassures Arjuna that he can reach the highest while fulfilling his duties, and it introduces grace as the force that completes human effort.
