Śaṅkarācārya's commentary
Those persons of good deeds — good deeds causing purity of mind — whose sin has almost come to an end are freed from the delusion of pairs spoken of above and worship Me, their Highest Self. They resolutely abandon all else, firm in the conviction that "This is the Supreme Reality and no other."
