Explain why the Bhagavad Gita is important for those who practice bhakti yoga:

because Krishna explains what it is and how to do it in there??

  1. I think you can break the point you made above into two points and explain them - Krishna advocates it as a form of yoga in the BG first, and then for the second point he explains how to do it.

    Possibly if their ishwara is Krishna/Vishnu, they might find it inspirational as a smriti text, so they treat it as an object of worship detailing the deeds of their ishwara.
