Mokṣopāya: Bhakti-rooted Jñāna and the Aṣṭāṅga Yoga of Viṣṇu-Meditation
सनक उवाच । ज्ञानलभ्यं परं मोक्षं प्राहुस्तत्त्वार्थचिंतकाः । यज्ज्ञानं भक्तिमूलं च भक्तिः कर्मवतां तथा ॥ २७ ॥
sanaka uvāca | jñānalabhyaṃ paraṃ mokṣaṃ prāhustattvārthaciṃtakāḥ | yajjñānaṃ bhaktimūlaṃ ca bhaktiḥ karmavatāṃ tathā || 27 ||
サナカは言った。「真理を観ずる者たちは、至上の解脱は知によって得られると言う。だがその知はバクティ(信愛)を根としており、また行(カルマ)に携わる者にとっても、バクティこそが方便である。」
Sanaka
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It reconciles the paths by stating that liberation is described as knowledge-born, but authentic knowledge itself is grounded in devotion, making bhakti central to moksha.
Bhakti is presented as the root-cause that matures into true jnana, and also as the sustaining inner attitude for those following karma (ritual and duty), unifying both paths through devotion.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana or Jyotisha) is taught here; the practical takeaway is that ritual action (karma) becomes spiritually fruitful when performed with devotion, aligning conduct with the goal of moksha.
