Sanskrit
संनियम्येन्द्रियग्रामं सर्वत्र समबुद्धयः । ते प्राप्नुवन्ति मामेव सर्वभूतहिते रताः ॥
saṃniyamyendriyagrāmaṃ sarvatra samabuddhayaḥ te prāpnuvanti mām eva sarvabhūtahite ratāḥ
Translation
Restraining and subduing the senses, regarding everything equally, in the welfare of all rejoicing, these also come unto Me.
Annie Besant · The Bhagavad-Gita, translated by Annie Besant (4th ed., 1922) — Wikisource · Public Domain
Explanation
The key word is “also” (te prāpnuvanti mām eva) — Krishna grants that the unmanifest path genuinely reaches the same destination as bhakti. Verse 5 will rank the two paths by difficulty, not by whether they arrive; this verse forecloses any reading of verse 2’s “best in yoga” as meaning the other path fails.
