One who fixes his pure mind on Me in My manifestation as the impersonal Brahman obtains the greatest happiness, wherein all his desires are completely fulfilled.
Purport
Paramānanda, or “the greatest happiness,” here indicates the greatest material happiness, since it is clearly stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that a devotee has no personal desire, or kāma. One who has personal desire is certainly within the material world, and on the material platform the greatest happiness is kāmāvasāyitā-siddhi, or the perfection of completely obtaining anything that one desires.

Translation
One who fixes his pure mind on me as the impersonal Brahman obtains the greatest happiness, wherein all his desires are completely fulfilled.
He attains supreme bliss in which all desires are attained. This supreme bliss is merging in Brahman according to Jīva Gosvāmī.
