22So with all your feeling serve the highest one, whose lotus feet are worth the serving, with a devotion that takes hold of what he is. 23The yoga of devotion set to work upon Vasudeva the Bhagavan quickly gives rise to detachment, and to the knowledge that is the seeing of Brahman. 24When a man's mind, meeting through the working of the senses objects that are all alike, no longer takes hold of an unevenness among them, calling this one dear and that one not, 25then by the self he sees the self, clinging to nothing, looking on all alike, with nothing to be dropped and nothing to be taken up, standing on the height. 26Brahman beyond, which is knowing and nothing but knowing, the supreme Self, the Lord, the Person: the Bhagavan is one, and it is by separate ways of being, the seen and the rest, that he is come at.
27Just this much and no more is the aim a yogin here joins himself to by the whole of yoga: to be clear of clinging, entirely.
