Why: Krishna closes the chapter by declaring himself the abode of the imperishable Brahman, of immortality, of eternal righteousness, and of absolute happiness, returning to a personal, relational framing after the more abstract, mechanistic description of the three qualities throughout the chapter.
In life: even after a long, useful, almost mechanical framework for understanding your own shifting states, it's worth returning at the end to something more personal and relational, connection to purpose, to people, to something beyond just self-managing your own psychology.
Teaching: after using this chapter's practical framework to better understand your own shifting states, remember to return to something more personal and relational as the actual destination, self-management of your psychology is useful, but this closing verse suggests it isn't meant to be the final point on its own.
