श्लोक 49 से 54 में यह स्पष्ट कर दिया गया है कि सांख्य-योग, अर्थात संन्यास-योग — जिसमें संसार से संन्यास लेकर निराकार ईश्वर की उपासना, या तो ज्ञान-योग अथवा ध्यान-योग से की जाती है — भी कर्म-योग की तरह नैष्कर्म्य-सिद्धि (अर्थात कर्म-फलों में आसक्ति का पूर्ण त्याग) और अंततः भक्ति-योग की परा-भक्ति (सर्वोच्च भक्ति) भी साधक को प्रदान कर देता है। अर्थात, अंत में चलकर भिन्न अध्यात्म-मार्ग एक ही जगह मिल जाते हैं।

Indeed, Renunciation Yoga (Sāmkhya Yoga) involves the worship of the Formless God by renouncing the world and all worldly affairs. This practice can be undertaken through either Knowledge Yoga (Jnāna Yoga) or Meditative Yoga (Dhyāna Yoga). In verses 49 to 54 of this chapter, it is emphasized that Renunciation Yoga not only brings the spiritual seeker the benefits of Action Yoga but also leads to the attainment of Naishkarmya Siddhi, signifying a complete renunciation of attachment to actions and their outcomes. Furthermore, Renunciation Yoga eventually leads to the rewards of Bhakti Yoga, the highest form of loving devotion to God. This illustrates that, ultimately, all spiritual paths converge, even if they may initially appear to differ significantly from one another. The verse offers another profound insight. It suggests that mere knowledge and enlightenment are insufficient for entry into the Abode of God. Even if someone has diligently followed the path of pure Knowledge through Jnāna Yoga or Dhyana Yoga without cultivating loving devotion to God, they may only reach the threshold of God's Abode. For such renunciates who have neglected to nurture love for God, God bestows upon them the highest form of loving devotion from His side, embracing them with love, and then welcomes them in. Therefore, the visa of Bhakti (loving devotion) is essential to be stamped on the passport of Knowledge in order to enter God's Abode.
