Children, not the wise, speak of knowledge and the Yoga of action or the performance of action as though they are distinct and different; he who is truly established in one obtains the fruits of both.

The childish, not the wise, speak of Sankhya and yoga as different. One who is truly established in even one of them gains the fruit of both.

Krishna says that only the immature, bālāḥ, treat Sankhya, the path of knowledge and renunciation, and yoga, the path of action, as separate. The wise know that whoever is properly grounded in either reaches the result of both. This verse is central to the Gita's effort to reconcile paths that were often seen as rivals. It does not deny that they differ in method, but insists that they meet in the same goal. For Arjuna, it means that choosing action does not cut him off from the fruit of knowledge.
