TRANSLATION

 

For one who explains this supreme secret to the devotees, pure

devotional service is guaranteed, and at the end he will come back to

Me.

 

PURPORT

 

Generally it is advised that Bhagavad-gita be discussed amongst the

devotees only, for those who are not devotees will understand neither

Krsna nor Bhagavad-gita. Those who do not accept Krsna as He is and

Bhagavad-gita as it is should not try to explain Bhagavad-gita

whimsically and become offenders. Bhagavad-gita should be explained to

persons who are ready to accept Krsna as the Supreme Personality of

Godhead. It is a subject matter for the devotees only and not for

philosophical speculators. Anyone, however, who tries sincerely to

present Bhagavad-gita as it is will advance in devotional activities

and reach the pure devotional state of life. As a result of such pure

devotion, he is sure to go back home, back to Godhead.
