Bhagavad Gita 5.4-5

Sanskrit

साङ्ख्ययोगौ पृथग्बालाः प्रवदन्ति न पण्डिताः । एकमप्यास्थितः सम्यगुभयोर्विन्दते फलम् ॥5.4॥यत्साङ्ख्यैः प्राप्यते स्थानं तद्योगैरपि गम्यते । एकं साङ्ख्यं च योगं च यः पश्यति स पश्यति ॥5.5॥

Transliteration

sāṅkhyayogau pṛthagbālāḥ pravadanti na paṇḍitāḥ | ekamapyāsthitaḥ samyagubhayorvindate phalam ‖5.4‖ yatsāṅkhyaiḥ prāpyate sthānaṃ tadyogairapi gamyate | ekaṃ sāṅkhyaṃ ca yogaṃ ca yaḥ paśyati sa paśyati ‖5.5‖

Meaning

Only children, not the wise, speak of Sankhya and Yoga as different; one established in either obtains the fruit of both. The state reached by the Sankhyas is reached also by the Yogis; one who sees Sankhya and Yoga as one, truly sees.
