युञ्जन्नेवं सदात्मानं योगी नियतमानसः ।शान्तिं निर्वाणपरमां मत्संस्थामधिगच्छति ॥

yuñjann evaṃ sadātmānaṃ yogī niyatamānasaḥ |śāntiṃ nirvāṇaparamāṃ matsaṃsthām adhigacchati ||

युञ्जन् · yuñjan

एवम् · evam

सदा · sadā

शान्तिम् · śāntim
peace
निर्वाणपरमाम् · nirvāṇaparamām
whose culmination is nirvana
मत्संस्थाम् · matsaṃsthām
resting in me

“Thus always training the self, the yogi with controlled mind reaches the peace whose culmination is nirvana, resting in me.”

— Original plain-language translation

Regular practice ripens into abiding peace rather than passing calm. Nirvana and resting in Krishna are spoken as one arrival. Method and devotion meet at the same end.
