Go for refuge to that very Lord, take Him as your resort, that He may take away the affliction of transmigration; resort to Him with your whole being, with all your self, Bharata. Then, by His grace, by the favour of the Lord, you will attain the supreme peace, the cessation, and the everlasting abode, my own supreme abode as Vishnu.

Since this is so, therefore go for refuge, with your whole being, with all your self, to Him alone, the governor of all, who, out of tender love for those who take refuge in Him, has taken His place as your charioteer and is the governor who says 'do thus'; conform to Him. Otherwise, set going by His maya, ignorant, you cannot avoid the doing of war and the rest; and so doing, you will perish. So do war and the rest in the manner I have told. This is the meaning. Doing so, by His grace you will attain the supreme peace, the stilling of all the bondage of action, and the everlasting abode. That is what is told by a hundred revealed texts: 'that supreme abode of Vishnu the wise see always', 'they reach the firmament where dwell the ancient Sadhya gods', 'where the first-born seers, the ancient ones, are', 'set by the Supreme, beyond the firmament, in the cave', 'he who is its overseer in the supreme firmament', 'now that light which shines beyond this heaven', 'he reaches the further shore of the path, that supreme abode of Vishnu', and the rest.

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

But the indirect manner of speaking here is like Bhima's oblique words about Drona.
