Purport

According to Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī, the word yoga here indicates liberation from material life, and sāṅkhya indicates the means of obtaining liberation. Thus Lord Kṛṣṇa is not merely the Lord of material yoga perfections, but of the highest liberated perfections as well. One can obtain sāṅkhya, or knowledge leading to liberation, by performing pious activities, and Lord Kṛṣṇa is also the cause, protector and Lord of such activities as well as of the learned teachers who instruct ordinary people in the means of piety. In many different ways Lord Kṛṣṇa is the real object of meditation and worship for every living entity. Lord Kṛṣṇa through the expansion of His potencies is everything, and this simple understanding, called Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is the supreme perfection of the yoga system.

Translation
I am the cause, the maintainer and the master of all siddhis of the yoga system, of jṣāna, of niṣkāma-karma, and of the searchers for Brahman. Since all siddhis are achieved by meditation on me, I alone am the cause of those siddhis. Not only am I the cause of the siddhis, I am the maintainer of those siddhis, and the master of them as well. I am the cause, maintainer and master not only of the siddhis, because I am the cause of yoga in which there is meditation upon me. I am also the cause of jṣāna (sāṅkhyasya), and the cause of niṣkāma-karma (dharma), which produces jṣāna.
