Serene-minded, fearless, firm in the vow of a Brahmachari, having controlled the mind, thinking of Me and balanced in mind, let him sit, having Me as his supreme goal.

serene and free of fear, firm in the vow of celibacy, restraining the mind, with thought fixed on me, he should sit joined in yoga, holding me as the highest.

The description of the meditator is completed. The mind should be serene and free of fear, and the meditator should keep the vow of brahmacarya, usually understood as celibacy and a disciplined life. Restraining the mind, with thought fixed on Krishna and holding him as the highest, the yogi sits joined in yoga. Here the instructions on technique turn personal: the object of meditation is not only an abstract stillness but the one who is speaking. This blend of meditation and devotion becomes stronger as the chapter ends.
