“Whoever remembers me constantly with a mind on nothing else — for that ever-disciplined yogi, O Partha, I am easily reached.”

— Original plain-language translation

After the austere technique comes the reassurance of grace: single-hearted habit makes the Lord accessible. Ease here is not cheapness but the fruit of constancy. This verse bridges the yoga of death to the devotion of Chapter 9.
