महाभारतः       mahābhārataḥ - book-12, chapter-336, verse-76

एवमेकं सांख्ययोगं वेदारण्यकमेव च ।
परस्पराङ्गान्येतानि पञ्चरात्रं च कथ्यते ।
एष एकान्तिनां धर्मो नारायणपरात्मकः ॥७६॥
76. evamekaṁ sāṁkhyayogaṁ vedāraṇyakameva ca ,

76. evam ekam sāṃkhyayogam vedāraṇyakam
eva ca parasparāṅgāni etāni
pañcarātram ca kathyate eṣa
ekāntinām dharmaḥ nārāyaṇaparātmakaḥ
76. evam etāni (mārgāḥ),
yāni parasparāṅgāni (eva santi),
ekam sāṃkhyayogam ca vedāraṇyakam eva ca pañcarātram ca kathyate.

76. Thus, these paths, which are mutually interconnected limbs, are called the single Sāṃkhya-Yoga, and indeed the Vedāraṇyakas (Upaniṣads), as well as Pañcarātra. This is the intrinsic nature (dharma) of the Ekāntins, whose supreme self is Nārāyaṇa.
