जो मुझे अधिभूत, अधिदैव और अधियज्ञ सहित जानते हैं, वे युक्तचित्त मनुष्य प्रयाण (मृत्यु) के समय भी मुझे जानते हैं।

Those who know Me along with Adhibhuta, Adhidaiva, and Adhiyajna — they, with their minds united with Me, know Me even at the time of death.

Commentary (टीका)

The final verse of Chapter 7 serves as a bridge to Chapter 8, where Arjuna will ask about these very terms. Those who comprehend God in all His aspects — material, divine, and sacrificial — maintain awareness of Him even in the critical moment of death. This steady remembrance at the end of life ensures liberation.
