Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 12, Verse 2

Bhakti Yoga

श्रीभगवानुवाच । मय्यावेश्य मनो ये मां नित्ययुक्ता उपासते । श्रद्धया परयोपेतास्ते मे युक्ततमा मताः ॥ २ ॥

śhrī-bhagavān uvācha mayy āveśhya mano ye māṁ nitya-yuktā upāsate śhraddhayā parayopetās te me yuktatamā matāḥ

Translation

The Blessed Lord said: Those who fix their minds on Me and worship Me, always united with Me and endowed with supreme faith, I consider the most perfect in yoga.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

श्रीभगवान बोले: जो मुझमें मन को लगाकर, निरंतर मुझसे जुड़े रहकर, परम श्रद्धा के साथ मेरी उपासना करते हैं, उन्हें मैं योगियों में सर्वश्रेष्ठ मानता हूँ।

Commentary

Krishna answers without hesitation: those devoted to him personally are yuktatamah, "the most united." The same word appeared at the end of chapter 6 (6.47), where the devotee was called the highest yogi. Three qualities are named: a mind absorbed in God, constant connection, and deep faith (shraddha).
