Chapter VIII · Śloka 27
नैते सृती पार्थ जानन्योगी मुह्यति कश्चन ।
तस्मात्सर्वेषु कालेषु योगयुक्तो भवार्जुन ॥
तस्मात्सर्वेषु कालेषु योगयुक्तो भवार्जुन ॥
naite sṛtī pārtha jānan yogī muhyati kaścana |
tasmāt sarveṣu kāleṣu yoga-yukto bhavārjuna ||
tasmāt sarveṣu kāleṣu yoga-yukto bhavārjuna ||
Knowing these two paths, O Pārtha, no yogi is ever deluded. Therefore, at all times be established in yoga, O Arjuna.
Knowledge of the two paths destroys confusion about the afterlife and redirects energy to what matters: sustained yoga-practice now. The instruction tasmāt — 'therefore' — shows that metaphysical knowledge must translate into present discipline.
