The Yoga of Liberation by Renunciation

Krishna gives the direct instruction to take refuge. 'Tam eva śaraṇaṁ gaccha sarvabhāvena bhārata'—take refuge (śaraṇam gaccha) in Him alone (tam eva) with all your being (sarva-bhāvena), O descendant of Bharata (bhārata). 'Tat-prasādāt parāṁ śāntiṁ sthānaṁ prāpsyasi śāśvatam'—by His grace (tat-prasādāt), you will attain (prāpsyasi) supreme peace (parām śāntim) and the eternal (śāśvatam) abode (sthānam). This is the key teaching: take complete refuge in the Supreme alone, with all your being. When you take refuge in Him completely, by His grace, you will attain supreme peace and the eternal abode. This is the direct path: complete surrender to the Supreme leads to peace and the eternal abode by His grace.
