Merely hearing this, Arjuna could not contain his joy. “Brother-in-law! I have fully understood the marks you have set out, of both the saguṇa and the nirguṇa upāsakas. But tell me how I should now conduct myself, and by doing what I can become worthy of your grace,” he said, and fell at His feet. Then Nārāyaṇa, lifting up Arjuna, who is Nara, said: “Arjuna! You do not need the marks of either the saguṇa or the nirguṇa upāsakas now; they are not all that easy. I will tell you a path easier than that. If you follow it, you will surely become the recipient of My grace. It is this: place your Manas and Buddhi in Me. If that is not possible for you, give up Ahaṅkāra and do karmas for God's sake. If you think that too is hard for you, if you feel it is not possible, give up the fruit of all karmas to Me alone, saying “Kṛṣṇārpaṇam”. Mind you, this word must be carried out not merely in words but with Manas, speech, body and action. It is enough if you do any one of these.”
