श्री भगवानुवाच
संन्यासः कर्मयोगश्च निःश्रेयसकरावुभौ।
तयोस्तु कर्मसंन्यासात्कर्मयोगो विशिष्यते।।5.2।।
।।5.2।।श्रीभगवान् बोले संन्यास (सांख्ययोग) और कर्मयोग दोनों ही कल्याण करनेवाले हैं। परन्तु उन दोनोंमें भी कर्मसंन्यास(सांख्ययोग)से कर्मयोग श्रेष्ठ है।
The word sannyasa means renunciation denoting renunciation of the rewards of actions as well and therefore refers to jnana yoga or the cultivation of Vedic knowledge. Both jnana yoga and karma yoga or performing prescribed Vedic activities are competent to award atma tattva; but between the two karma yoga is the easier to perform and can in fact be performed with renunciation receiving benefits from both. This is Lord Krishnas meaning.
