Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 12: The Path of Devotion

Bhagavad Gita 12.2

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

mayyāveśya mano ye māṃ nityayuktā upāsate | śraddhayā parayopetāste me yuktatamā matāḥ ||

Those who fix their minds on me and worship me, always disciplined and filled with the highest faith, I consider the most perfectly disciplined.

Modern context

Krishna answers first: those who fix their minds on me with deep faith are the most perfectly joined. Personal devotion is given the highest place. The reason will become clear: love for a person is natural to human beings. We know how to love someone. Turning that same capacity toward the divine uses a strength we already have.
