Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 9, Verse 34

मन्मना भव मद्भक्तो मद्याजी मां नमस्कुरु । मामेवैष्यसि युक्त्वैवमात्मानं मत्परायणः ॥ ३४ ॥

man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru mām evaiṣhyasi yuktvaivam ātmānaṁ mat-parāyaṇaḥ

Translation

Fix your mind on me, be my devotee, worship me, bow down to me. Having thus disciplined yourself, with me as your supreme goal, you will come to me.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

मुझमें मन वाला हो, मेरा भक्त बन, मेरा पूजन करने वाला हो, मुझको प्रणाम कर। इस प्रकार आत्मा को मुझमें नियुक्त करके, मेरे परायण होकर तू मुझको ही प्राप्त होगा।

Commentary

Man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ — this four-part call (think of me, love me, worship me, bow to me) sums up the whole path of bhakti. It is repeated almost word for word in 18.65, near the Gita's close.
