Chapter 13 • Verse 25

ध्यानेनात्मनि पश्यन्ति केचिदात्मानमात्मना। अन्ये साङ्ख्येन योगेन कर्मयोगेन चापरे॥

dhyānenātmani paśhyanti kechid ātmānam ātmanā anye sāṅkhyena yogena karma-yogena chāpare

Meaning

Some perceive the Self within through meditation; others through the yoga of knowledge; still others through the yoga of action.

Different paths lead to self-realization: some attain through meditation (dhyana yoga), others through philosophical knowledge (sankhya/jnana yoga), others through selfless action (karma yoga). The path varies; the goal is one.

Strength Reflection

"I can realize the Self through meditation, knowledge, or selfless action."

Devotional Surrender

O Lord, guide me to the path suited to my nature that leads to self-realization.
