nivairaḥ sarva bhūteṣu yaḥ sa māmeti pāṇḍava ||

Translation

Whosoever serves Me, regards Me as the highest and is devoted to Me, free from attachment and devoid of malice towards any creature, comes to Me, O Arjuna

Purport

In earlier Shlokas, Bhagvan Shri Krishna declared that he cannot fully by any other method than devotion or practice of Bhakti Yoga. In this Shloka Shri Krishna affirms the same. Any human who regards Shri Krishna as the supreme and devoted to him gets free from all impurities in the present life and attains the abode of Shri Krishna after leaving this mortal body. The abode of Shri Krishna is the highest abode possible for any living being, It is also the highest level in the state of Moksha. One who goes in the abode of Shri Krishna sees Shri Krishna and attains the highest peace and eternal joy forever and ever.

Thus Bhakti Yoga is the king of all Yoga. No matter what other yoga methods one applies, it is suggested he must do that with the devotion to Shri Krishna.
