How can a man attain You who are with attributes and formless by thinking of You?

I shall speak to you in brief the method how to attain the Supreme Goal (God) which knowers of the Vedas call the imperishable, and into which enter the recluses free from attachment, and desiring which the celibates practise celibacy. Having restrained all the media of perception. fixing the mind in the heart, fixing the life-breath in the head and remaining steadfast in yogic concentration on God, the striver who departs leaving the body, reciting the one syllabled Brahma. Om and dwelling on Me in My absolute aspect, attains the Supreme Goal.(11-13)

Now tell me—how can a self-controlled man attain You by thinking of Your Form endowed with attributes and Form?

O Partha, he who always and constantly thinks of Me with undivided mind, to that Yogi, always absorbed in Me, I am easily attainable.(14)
