Transcript of Bhakti-Shastri class on this verse by Chaitanya

Bg 7.30

sādhibhūtādhidaivaṁ māṁ
sādhiyajñaṁ ca ye viduḥ
prayāṇa-kāle ’pi ca māṁ
te vidur yukta-cetasaḥ

Word for word: 

saadhibhūta — and the governing principle of the material manifestation; adhidaivam — governing all the demigods; mām — Me; saadhiyajñam — and governing all sacrifices; ca — also; ye — those who; viduḥ — know; prayāṇa — of death; kāle — at the time; api — even; ca — and; mām — Me; te — they; viduḥ — know;yuktacetasaḥ — their minds engaged in Me.

Translation: 

Those in full consciousness of Me, who know Me, the Supreme Lord, to be the governing principle of the material manifestation, of the demigods, and of all methods of sacrifice, can understand and know Me, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, even at the time of death.

 

So Sri Krishna introduced three terms here again 

saadhibhūta, adhidaivam  and saadhiyajñam 

so what these words are will be question of Arjuna in the next chapter and Sri Krishna will also answer briefly and then Sri Krishna mentions further important thing 

prayāṇa-kāle ’pi ca māṁ, 

those who understand Me to be adhibhūta, adhidaiva  and adhiyajña such people they will be well situated even at the time of prayāṇa-kāl.

prayāṇa-kāl was referred earlier in 2.72 if the person is situated like this then the person will attain Brahma Nirvan so here also antakala and Prayan Kala same thing. So Sri Krishna is saying those who know Me to be ultimate truth they will be yukta-cetasaḥ, they will be well situated even at the time of prayāṇa-kāl and the implication is by that they will attain Me.

So essentially in this section from 7.25 to 7.30 what Sri Krishna told?

Sri Krishna is telling His position is Supreme It is not revealed to everyone but if somebody wants to come to know Him then they have practice steady devotional service, steady devotional service when they can practice by giving up sinful activities do pious activities become determined in devotional service by that they will understand all these things they will understand Brahman they will understand adhyatam and most importantly they will understand Krishna as the ultimate reality as be adhibhūta, adhidaiva  and adhiyajña and such people they will be well situated at the time of death and ultimately they will attain liberation.

So in this way in 7th Chapter Knowledge of the absolute has three section:

First section how absolute pervades and underlies everything 

Second section how everybody whatever they are doing is in some relation with absolute, defying, obeying and serving something connected with absolute.

Third, but when we surrender to absolute when we understand absolute as absolute truth when we understand Krishna to be absolute truth then we attain supreme auspiciousness  or absolute auspiciousness yukta-cetasaḥ.
