janma karma ca me divyam evaṃ yo vetti tattvataḥ |
tyaktvā dehaṃ punar-janma naiti māmeti so’rjuna || 9 ||

9. Whosoever thus knows in truth My divine birth and deeds O Arjuna, is not reborn again, and after
leaving the body comes to Me.


Commentary

I am [in fact] devoid of birth, because My 'birth' is unlike that of ordinary beings whose births are conditioned by Karma in association with Material Nature and whose actions produce the evil of bondage. By a true understanding of My divine appearance and deeds, all one's karmic obstacles that hinder the taking of refuge in Me are absolved. In this birth itself, resorting to Me in the manner already described, and loving Me and contemplating on Me alone, one reaches Me.
