Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 12, Verse 20

And they who follow this Immortal Dharma, as described above, endued with Shraddhâ, regarding Me as the Supreme Goal, and devoted, they are exceedingly dear to Me.

The chapter closes by naming real, active faith in everything just described as what actually seals this closeness.

It's not enough to hear this list of qualities, Krishna asks for genuine faith and devotion built around it. That real follow-through is what turns description into relationship.
