O mighty-armed! One who is above such contraries is easily liberated from bondage. 🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 5, Verse 4: साङ्ख्ययोगौ पृथग्बाला: प्रवदन्ति न पण्डिता: | एकमप्यास्थित: सम्यगुभयोर्विन्दते फलम् || 4|| sānkhya-yogau pṛithag bālāḥ pravadanti na paṇḍitāḥ ekamapyāsthitaḥ samyag ubhayor vindate phalam 🔴The thoughtless---not men of discrimination---affirm that Samkhya and Yoga are different. Properly resorting to either of them, one wins the fruit of both. 🙏 Please Support the Vedanta Society of New York http://www.vedantany.org/donate 🌐 Please Visit Us Website: https://vedantany.org Apple & Spotify Podcasts: https://www.vedantany.org/media-channels YouTube (Main Channel):    / @vedantany   YouTube (Archives):    / @vedantanyarchives   Facebook:   / vedantany   X / Twitter:   / vedantany   📙 Books by Swami Sarvapriyananda https://www.vedantany.org/swamis-books Lecture Series by Swami Sarvapriyananda 📓 Introductory Lectures: https://www.vedantany.org/introductor... 📚 Vedanta Scriptures: https://www.vedantany.org/by-scriptures 🧩 Lectures by Topics: https://www.vedantany.org/by-topic 💬 AskSwami Q&A: https://www.vedantany.org/ask-swami-qa 📖 Scriptures Taught by Swami Sarvapriyananda    • Aparokshanubhuti | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Bhagavad Gita | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Brihadaranyaka Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriy...      • Dṛg Dṛśya Viveka | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna | Swami Sarv...      • Isha Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Katha Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Kena Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Mandukya Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Mundaka Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Vedantasara of Sadananda | Swami Sarvapriy...   🪔 About Vedanta Vedanta is among the world’s oldest spiritual philosophies and one of its most inclusive.
