प्रयत्नाद्यतमानस्तु योगी संशुद्धकिल्बिषः
अनेकजन्मसंसिद्धस्ततो याति परां गतिम्

prayatnādyatamānastu yogī saṃśuddhakilbiṣaḥ
anekajanmasaṃsiddhastato yāti parāṃ gatim

TRANSLATION

But the Yogin striving earnestly, cleansed of all his stains, and perfected through many births, reaches the supreme state.

PURPORT

Because of such excellence of Yoga, through accumulation of merit collected in many births the Yogin striving earnestly, becomes cleansed from stains. Having become perfected, he reaches the supreme state, even though he had once gone astray.

Shri Krishna now speaks of the superiority of the Yogin above all others because of his being devoted to the supreme goal of human existence.
