"Sankhya and Yoga are distinct," fools declare, not the wise (paṇḍitāḥ). He who is rightly established in even one, finds the fruit of both.

Stoller MillerLiterary

Simpletons separate philosophy and discipline, but the learned do not; applying one correctly, a man finds the fruit of both.

ZaehnerJesuit

(4) 'There must be a difference between theory and practice', so say the simple-minded, nut the wise. Apply yourself to only one whole-heartedly and win the fruit of both.

GambhiranandaAdvaita

5.4 The fools, not the learned ones, speak of Saṅkhyā (the path of Knowledge) and (Karma-) yoga as different. Anyone who properly resorts to even one (of them) gets the result of both.

AdidevanandaVishishtadvaita

5.4 Children, not the learned, speak of Saṅkhyā (Jñāna Yoga) and Yoga (Karma Yoga) as distinct; he who is firmly set in one, attains the fruit of both.

SivanandaVedanta

5.4 Children, not the wise, speak of knowledge and the Yoga of action or the performance of action as though they are distinct and different; he who is truly established in one obtains the fruits of both.
