[edit] Krishna and the Samkhya panth:

I will add the following text into the article:

Lord Shri Krishna also speaks of Kapiladev's teachings as one path of the Sanatan Dharma:

  • "Only the ignorant speak of devotional service [karma-yoga] as being different from the analytical study of the material world [Sankhya]. Those who are actually learned say that he who applies himself well to one of these paths achieves the results of both." (Gita 5.4)[1] —The preceding unsigned comment was added by HinduDefender (talkcontribs) 20:59, 5 February 2007 (UTC).

Hello MA, personally I think the quotation would be more relevant in the Sankhya article as it doesn't discuss Maharshi Kapila specifically? Regards, Gouranga(UK) 11:33, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
