Ch 8 v 14
O Parth, (Arjuna) for those yogis who always think of Me with exclusive devotion,
I am easily attainable because of their constant absorption in Me.
Ch 8 v 8
With practice, O Parth, when you constantly engage the mind in remembering Me,
the Supreme Divine Personality, without deviating, you will certainly attain Me.
(You made my day, OPV!)

St. Francis was a great devotee. Like Chaitanya Maha Prabhu, he was always immersed in God's remembrance and tears of love flowed from his eyes incessantly. Jesus and St. Francis should be the role model for Christian Devotees.
