Chapter 8 verse 13
“One who departs from the body while remembering Me, the Supreme Personality, and chanting the syllable Om, will attain the supreme goal.”
Om is called pranava mantram. It is the sound form of the formless Supreme Being from which all Vedas has arisen. As we have established in unequivocal terms, it is desired to utter God’s syllable Om and His other names and think of Him alone at the time of life leaving this body. How many are able to accomplish this very difficult task is dependent on their sadhana throughout many lives and intensity of their practice. This sadhana combined with God’s Grace is what will get us in a situation where we can think and utter his name at the time of death. Striving towards that goal should be all of our ultimate Goal.
