CHAPTER XII Ar'juna. Lord! of the men who serve Thee-true in heart-As God revealed ; and of the men who serve, Worshipping Thee Unrevealed, Unbodied, Far, Which take the better way of faith and life ? Krishna. Whoever serve Me-as I show My­self-Constantly true, in full demotion fixed,Those hold I very holy. But who serve-Worshipping Me The One, The Invisible,The Unrevealed, Unnamed, Unthinkable, Uttermost, All-pervading, Highest, Sure-Who thus adore Me, mastering their sense,O f one set mind to all, glad in all good,These blessed souls come unto Me.Yet, hardThe travail is for such as bend their minds To reach th’ Unmanifest, That viewless path Shall scarce be trod by man bearing the flesh ! But whereso any doeth all his deeds Renouncing self for Me, full of Me, fixed To serve only the Highest, night and day Musing on Me-him will I swiftly lift Forth from life’s ocean of distress and death, Whose soul clings fast to Me. Cling thou to Me !
