Why: Krishna answers that those who fix their minds on him and worship with constant devotion are considered most established in yoga, giving a direct, clear answer rather than treating both paths as perfectly equal in practice.
In life: sometimes the most helpful thing a mentor or guide can do is actually rank the options for you plainly, rather than diplomatically avoiding a real preference out of politeness.
Teaching: if you're advising someone stuck between two options, be willing to give an honest, direct preference when you actually have one, false neutrality isn't always the most helpful response.
