B.G 6.46 and 6.47
tapasvibhyo'dhiko yogī jñānibhyo'pi mato'dhikaḥ। karmibhyaścādhiko yogī tasmādyogī bhavārjuna ॥46॥
The real Yogi is greater than the ascetics, greater even than those possessing knowledge, and greater than those who perform rituals. Therefore, O Arjuna, you better develop to be a Yogi.
yogināmapi sarveṣāṁ madgatenāntarātmanā। śraddhāvān bhajate yo māṁ sa me yuktatamo mataḥ ॥47॥
Among all Yogis, the one who, with faith, worships Me with his inner self absorbed in Me, is considered by Me to be the most perfect Yogi.
Gīta Tātparya 6.47
Testimonial from sage Dattatreya is quoted emphasizing gaining direct experience of meditating on Lord Hari with knowledge. Understanding all other principle deities are under the governance of Lord Hari is the right knowledge.
"tapasaścaiva yajñādeḥ dhyānameva viśiṣṭhate। ajñānidhyānato jñānaṁ dhyānaṁ sajjñānamapyataḥ॥ tatrāpi mayyabhaktasya nānyaddhyānaṁ prayojakam। anyasāmānyavidyo me yaścānyaṁ neti paśyati॥
"Among the practices, compared to penances and sacrifices, meditation is superior. Even among meditators, those who meditate with knowledge are superior; and among them those with right knowledge. Even among such practices, the meditation on other deities is not useful for one devoted to Me, as he sees no other than Me.
avaratvadr̥gudāsīno vidveṣī cetyabhaktayaḥ। madbhakto'pi hi kāryārthaṁ yo dhyāyedanya devatām। parivāratāmr̥te tasmāt kevalaṁ madupāsakaḥ। varo'nyān madadhīnāṁśca sarvān jānan viśuddhadhīḥ॥"
A person who sees all principles as equal and is indifferent is not a devotee. Even among my devotees, those who worship other principle deities for a specific purpose, thinking them to be under my subjugation, are inferior compared to those who worship me alone. Since I alone govern all principle deities, a devotee who worships only me with a purified intellect is considered supreme."
iti dattātreyavacanam ॥46,47॥
- thus states the utterance of Dattatreya.
॥ iti śrīmadānandatīrthabhagavatpādācāryaviracite śrībhagavadgītātātparyanirṇaye ṣaṣṭhodhyāyaḥ ॥
Thus ends the sixth chapter of the 'Tatparya Nirnaya' (the essence of the Bhagavad Gita), composed by Shrimad Anandatirtha (Shri Madhvacharya).
॥ oṁ tatsaditi śrīmadbhagavadgītāsu upaniṣatsu brahmavidyāyāṁ yogaśāstre śrīkr̥ṣṇārjunasaṁvāde samādhiyogaprapañcanaṁ nāma ṣaṣṭhodhyāyaḥ ॥
Om, thus ends the sixth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, which is part of the Upanishads and the Yoga Shastra, in the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, known as the 'Samadhi Yoga Prapancha,' in the study of Brahma Vidya (knowledge of the Absolute).
