अनन्याश्चिन्तयन्तो मां ये जनाः पर्युपासते।तेषां नित्याभियुक्तानां योगक्षेमं वहाम्यहम्॥
ananyāś cintayanto māṃ ye janāḥ paryupāsateteṣāṃ nityābhiyuktānāṃ yoga-kṣemaṃ vahāmyaham
Word by word
The verse says
For those who think of me with nothing else beside, who stay near me, always joined — I carry what they need to get and what they need to keep.
In plain words
Yoga-kṣema — getting and keeping. It is a household phrase, not a spiritual one.
Acquiring what you do not have, and protecting what you do. The two things every person spends their life on.
Krishna says he carries both.
Where you've felt this · in family life
When you were eight you did not know how the electricity bill got paid. You knew the lights came on. Somebody was carrying that every month, on a particular date, and it did not enter your head once in ten years — which is the clearest sign that it was being carried well.
Going deeper
This is among the most quoted promises in the book, and it needs saying plainly what it does and does not offer.
It does not promise that nothing hard will happen. Nowhere in the Gita does anybody get that, least of all the man being spoken to, who is about to fight a war in which most of his family are killed. Reading it as protection from difficulty sets a person up to feel abandoned by the first difficulty.
What is described is carriage: the getting and the keeping are not yours alone to manage.
The difference shows up as the quality of a day rather than as its contents. Two people can have the same week. One spends it as a person holding everything up, and one does not, and the week is not the same week.
