How to know Me fully

śrībhagavānuvācamayyāsaktamanāḥ pārtha yogaṃ yuñjanmadāśrayaḥasaṃśayaṃ samagraṃ māṃ yathā jñāsyasi tacchṛṇu

Partha, with your mind held in Me, practising yoga, resting in Me, hear how you will know Me fully, without doubt.

What it means

Krishna opens a new chapter with an invitation. Keep your mind attached to me, he says. Practise yoga. Take refuge in me. Then listen, and you'll know me fully, samagram, completely, with no doubt left. This attachment isn't clinging. It's love that steadies the mind.

The story

Chapter six ended with love as the highest yoga. Chapter seven picks up that thread. Krishna now begins to reveal who he really is, to a friend who has learned to listen.

In your life

Remember the difference between knowing facts about someone and truly knowing them, after years of friendship. Spend time with what you love most. Knowing grows from closeness.
