Dear and respected Devotees.  Please accept our humble pranam: 

Sri piLLai lOkAchAryA's yaadruchchika-p-padi
 
lOkAchAryAya guravE krshNa paadasya sUnavE |
yat kataakshaika laksyaaNaam sulabah: srIdhara: sadaa ||
 
charama sloka prakaraNam:

sarvadharmAn parityajya maam Ekam saraNam vraja  |
aham  thvaa sarva pApEbhyO mOkshayishyaami maa sucha: ||

sarvadharmAn ? after he was taught the karma, gnyaana and bhakti yOgas in 
order, Arjuna, due to the preciousness and difficulty of the three yOgas, and 
due to the fact that they were not in accordance with his svarUpa, became sad 
and worried about how to attain the ultimate thing. Krishna remove Arjuna's 
worries by saying "Discard everything that I have taught you till now, and take 
Me as the only means to the goal ? I will remove all of your obstacles ? Do not 
worry".
 
sarvadharmAn ? all the dharmaas; all the means that were told before; 
parityajya ? discard them (similar to discarding food we don?t want down to the 
taste and smell!); maam ? Me, the one who has taken your salvation as my 
responsibility/duty; Ekam ? ONLY me; saraNam ? as the means; vraja ? take, or 
persevere; aham ? Me, who is all Supreme; thvaa ? you, who has discarded all 
other means and goals other than Me; sarva pApEbhya:- from all the obstacles 
that stand in the way of you attaining Me; mOkshayishyaami ? will free you 
from; maa sucha: - do not worry
 
Thus, Lord Krishna removes the worry of Arjuna by saying " Discard all the 
means along with their auxiliary prescriptions, and take Me, me who possesses 
all the auspicious qualities such as vaatsalya (the quality of enjoying even 
the faults of His devotees), ONLY me as the means; I, who am all powerful, will 
free you ? the one who is taking only ME as the means - from all of your 
bindings and give you salvation. Do not worry".
