सर्व गुह्यतमम् भूयः शृणु मे परमम् वचः ।
इष्टोऽसि मे धृढम् इति ततो वक्ष्यामि ते हितम् ॥ ६४ ॥

शृणु
[zRNu]
Listen भूयः
[bhUyaH]
once more परमम्
[paramam]
to this supreme वचः
[vacaH]
directive मे
[me]
of mine, गुह्यतमम्
[guhyatamam]
the most subtle सर्व
[sarva]
of all. इति वक्ष्यामि
[iti vakSyAmi]
I state this ते हितम्
[te hitam]
for your benefit, ततो
[tato]
since धृढम् इष्टोऽसि
[dhRDham iSTo'si]
you are very dear मे
[me]
to Me.
Among all these secrets, devotion is superior.
Even earlier, it was referred to as ‘extremely concealed’ in 9-1: ‘You are not jealous. I will tell you this knowledge, which is extremely concealed’.
Listen to that instruction once again from Me. It’s My supreme and final directive. I state this for your benefit, since you are very dear to Me.
