mad-yājī
mām evaiṣyasi yuktvaivam
Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, become my devotee
Being completely absorbed in Me (Lord Krishna)
worship Me
can approach the supreme destination.
Being completely absorbed in Me, surely you will come to Me.
O son of Pṛthā, those who take shelter in Me
though they be of lower birth—women, vaiśyas [merchants], as well as śūdras [workers]
offer obeisances unto me
