Shloka 1
Sanskrit:
साङ्ख्ययोगौ पृथग्बालाः प्रवदन्ति न पण्डिताः |
एकमप्यास्थितः सम्यगुभयोर्विन्दते फलम् ॥ ५.४ ॥
Transliteration:
Sāṅkhya-yogau pṛithag bālāḥ pravadanti na paṇḍitāḥ,
Ekam apy āsthitaḥ samyag ubhayor vindate phalam.
Meaning:
Only the ignorant speak of sankhya (path of knowledge) and yoga (path of action) as different; the wise do not. One who properly follows either path attains the same result.
Explanation:
Krishna clears the myth: Real sages know that jnana (sankhya – renunciation through knowledge) and karma yoga (devotional action) are not rivals—they lead to the same liberation! It's not "either/or"—it's unity at the highest level. Wise see oneness!
Shloka 2 Sanskrit:
यत्साङ्ख्यैः प्राप्यते स्थानं तद्योगैरपि गम्यते |
एकं साङ्ख्यं च योगं च यः पश्यति स पश्यति ॥ ५.५ ॥
Transliteration:
Yat sāṅkhyaiḥ prāpyate sthānaṁ tad yogair api gamyate,
Ekaṁ sāṅkhyaṁ cha yogaṁ cha yaḥ paśhyati sa paśhyati.
Meaning:
The supreme state that is attained by followers of sankhya is also reached by followers of yoga. He who sees sankhya and yoga as one truly sees.
Explanation:
The destination is identical—whether through pure knowledge (detachment + discrimination) or through selfless action offered to God. True vision is seeing no difference in the goal. Unity of paths = true wisdom!
Shloka 3 Sanskrit:
संन्यासस्तु महाबाहो दुःखमाप्तुमयोगतः |
योगयुक्तो मुनिर्ब्रह्म नचिरेणाधिगच्छति ॥ ५.६ ॥
Transliteration:
Sannyāsas tu mahā-bāho duḥkham āptum ayogataḥ,
Yoga-yukto munir brahma na chireṇādhigacchhati.
Meaning:
But renunciation (mere sannyasa without yoga) is difficult to attain without karma yoga, O mighty-armed one. The sage who is established in karma yoga quickly attains Brahman.
Explanation:
Krishna's practical advice: Jumping straight to total renunciation (quitting all action) is hard and full of struggle for most. But the muni who practices karma yoga (selfless, devotional action) reaches Brahman very quickly! Action purifies faster—get moving with devotion!
Today’s TakeawayPaths may look different, but the summit is one! Sankhya and karma yoga both lead to liberation—don't fight over which is "better." For most of us, karma yoga (doing your duty selflessly, offering it to God) is the faster, easier highway to peace and Brahman. Act with detachment, reach quickly!
