c16.108

While *Sāṁkhya* treats of *Jñāna-Yoga*, the path of knowledge, Yoga concerns itself with the ways and means of achieving such knowledge and presents a scheme of life, *Kriyā-yoga*. Its interest is not metaphysical but practical. Its theoretical background is furnished by Sāṁkhya whose philosophy, categories, and concepts it accepts, without developing its own theory of knowledge like other systems.
