Free of pride and delusion: those from whom pride and delusion have departed. Those who have conquered the fault of attachment: attachment itself is the fault, and they have conquered it. Ever in the adhyātma, ever in the pondering of the true nature of the supreme Self, intent on it. With desires wholly stilled, those whose desires have, particularly, ceased without residue; ascetics, renouncers, freed of the pairs, the dear and the undear and the rest, the pairs named pleasure and pain: such undeluded ones, freed of delusion, go to that imperishable step as described. That step is again qualified.

Thus, having come to Me for refuge, free of conceit and delusion, free of the delusion that is the conceit of self in the non-self; the fault of attachment conquered, having conquered the fault called attachment to the quality-made enjoyments; ever given to the adhyatma, the knowledge that is in the self being the adhyatma, given to the meditation on the self; the desires for things other than that turned away, and freed of the pairs of opposites named pleasure and pain; undeluded, knowers of the natures of the self and the non-self; they go to that undecaying abode, attain the self abiding as it truly is, of the form of unbounded knowledge. For those who have come to Me for refuge, by My grace alone all those engagements become easy to do and reach as far as consummation. This is the meaning.

This is a brief sub-gloss. For a fuller reading of this verse, see Madhusūdana, Śaṅkara, or Rāmānuja above.

Krishna states a further means, with 'free of pride'.
