For those practiced in *yoga,* it is recommended that they raise the life force between the eyebrows, but for a pure devotee who does not practice such *yoga,* the mind should always be engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that at death he can remember the Supreme by His grace. This is explained in verse fourteen. The particular use of the word *yoga-balena* is significant in this verse because without practice of *yoga* one cannot come to this transcendental state of being at the time of death. One cannot suddenly remember the Supreme Lord at death unless he is practiced in some *yoga* system, especially the system of *bhakti-yoga.* Since one's mind at death is very disturbed, one should practice transcendence through *yoga* during one's life.
