Dnyaneshwari Ch. 5, Verse 7

योगयुक्तो विशुद्धात्मा विजितात्मा जितेन्द्रियः। सर्वभूतात्मभूतात्मा कुर्वन्नपि न लिप्यते॥

तरी संन्यास आणि योगु । हे दोन्ही मार्ग एकु । जैसा एकाचि अर्थाचा वाचकू । शब्दभेदु ॥ ७ ॥

"Therefore, Sanyasa and Yoga are both one path; just as different words denote the same meaning."

मार्ग Noun

वाचकू Adjective

शब्दभेदु Noun

💡 Meaning

Renunciation and Yoga are both the same path. Just as different words can refer to the same meaning, these two paths lead to the same goal.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

In this verse, Dnyaneshwar Maharaj clarifies that Sanyasa (renunciation of the fruits of action) and Karma Yoga (selfless performance of duty) are essentially the same. Although they appear to be different methods, their spiritual destination is identical. He uses a linguistic analogy: just as different synonyms can refer to the same object, these two paths are merely different names for the same spiritual truth. One who masters the mind and senses through yoga realizes that the self is the same in all beings, thus remaining untouched by the bondage of actions.

🎯 Practical Application

In daily life, focus on the quality of your work (Yoga) while detaching yourself from the anxiety of the result (Sanyasa). For example, a doctor treating a patient focuses entirely on the procedure without being paralyzed by the fear of the outcome.

📌 Context

Saint Dnyaneshwar explains the fundamental unity between the path of renunciation (Sanyasa) and the path of action (Yoga).

🔍 Deep Interpretation
