Vānaprastha-vṛtti and the Transition toward the Fourth Āśrama (वानप्रस्थवृत्तिः चतुर्थाश्रमोपक्रमश्च)
पज्चविंशति तत्त्वानि तुल्यान्युभयत: समम् | योगे सांख्येडपि च तथा विशेषं तत्र मे शूणु,सांख्य और पातञ्जलयोग--इन दोनों दर्शनोंमें समानभावसे पचीस तत्त्वोंका प्रतिपादन किया गया है-। इस विषयमें जो विशेष बात है, वह मुझसे सुनो
pañcaviṃśati tattvāni tulyāny ubhayataḥ samam | yoge sāṅkhye 'pi ca tathā viśeṣaṃ tatra me śṛṇu ||
ヴィヤーサは言った。「ヨーガとサーンキヤの両方において、同じ二十五原理が、偏りなく等しく説かれている。いま、そこにおいて理解すべき相違の要点を、わたしから聞きなさい。」
व्यास उवाच
Both Sāṅkhya and Pātañjala Yoga accept an equivalent framework of twenty-five tattvas (fundamental principles). The speaker then signals that, despite this shared ontology, there is a specific distinguishing feature between the two that will be explained next.
In the didactic setting of the Śānti Parva, Vyāsa is instructing the listener by comparing two major philosophical systems. He first establishes their common ground (the same set of tattvas) and then prepares to clarify their doctrinal difference.
