The Gita according to Gandhi 257

The Gita according to Gandhi -Mahadev Desai

DISCOURCE 5 See III. 6. 4. It is the ignorant who speak of sankhya and yoga as different, not so those who have knowledge. He who is rightly established even in one wins to the fruit of both. The yogi engrossed in sankhya (knowledge) lives even in thought for the good of the world and attains the fruit of karmayoga by the sheer power of his thought. The karmayogi ever engrossed in unattached action naturally enjoys the peace of the jnanayogi. 5. The goal that the sankhyas attain is also reached by the yogins. He sees truly who sees both sankhya and yoga as one. 6. But renunciation, O Mahabahu, is hard to attain except by yoga; the ascetic equipped with yoga attains Brahman ere long.
