Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 8
Appendix:—The expression `bhaktya yuktah' means that when a striver's attachment to the world is wiped out, he has attraction only for God, attraction for anyone else does not remain in him. The worldly people have attraction for 'apara (lower nature) but he, who having renounced attraction for 'apara', is attracted towards God, becomes a devotee. The worldly people being attached to the body and the world become 'vibhakta' viz., separate from God but a striver who remains engrossed in the devotion of God, does not remain `vibhakta' but becomes a 'bhakta' (devotee) viz., becomes one with God. The term 'yogabalcna' means that because of the past practice of yoga, the state of weakness usually visiting at the time of death cannot cause an obstacle to him, cannot cause any change in him. The strength (power) gained by regulating breath etc., is `Yogabala'.
