Narada Purana — Purva Bhaga, Shloka 35
Janaka’s Quest for Liberation; Pañcaśikha’s Sāṅkhya on Renunciation, Elements, Guṇas, and the Deathless State
कथमस्मिन्स इत्येव संबंधः स्यादसंहितः । एवं सति च का प्रीहिर्ज्ञानविद्यातपोबलैः ॥ ३५ ॥
kathamasminsa ityeva saṃbaṃdhaḥ syādasaṃhitaḥ | evaṃ sati ca kā prīhirjñānavidyātapobalaiḥ || 35 ||
此处怎会有连贯的关联——所谓“他在此中”之说？若果真如此，那么凭借知识、学问、苦行（tapas）乃至权力，又怎能得到真实的满足？

FAQs
It questions an ungrounded claim of “God/That is in this” unless the sambandha (true relation) is properly realized; without that coherence, even knowledge, learning, austerity, and powers cannot yield lasting inner fulfillment.
By implying that satisfaction (prīti) does not arise from mere attainments, it points toward genuine inner connection—bhakti grounded in right understanding—rather than pride in learning, tapas, or siddhi-like power.
It indirectly critiques reliance on vidyā as mere scholarship (including Vedanga-style learning such as Vyākaraṇa or other technical disciplines) when it is not integrated into realized sambandha and lived spiritual transformation.
