The previous shloka described the problem: from birth, all beings are caught in the delusion of duality. Here is the way through. Those whose accumulated sins have been worn away through righteous actions — they break free from dvandva-moha and turn to Krishna with unwavering commitment.
It is like hard, compacted soil. Water it steadily, patiently, season after season. One day, a seed finally breaks through. Virtuous action works the same way — gradually, the grip of duality loosens, and the mind naturally turns toward the divine.
'Dridha-vratah' — of firm resolve. Once the turn happens, these devotees do not waver. Their commitment is steady because it grows from inner clarity, not from emotional impulse.
