968 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 3, Ch. 24

Those who are trying to get out of the entanglement by speculation are
also doing their best, but in the Vedic scriptures we find that if anyone
has taken to the devotional service of the Lord in Krsna consciousness, he
can very easily uproot the deep-rooted desire for fruitive activities.
Sankhya philosophy will be broadcast by Kapila Muni for that purpose.
His bodily features are also described herein. Jana does not refer to
ordinary research work. Jiidna entails receiving knowledge from the
scriptures through the spiritual master by disciplic succession. In the
modern age there is a tendency to do research by mental speculation and
concoction. But the man who speculates forgets that he himself is
subject to the four defects of nature: he is sure to commit mistakes,
his senses are imperfect, he is sure to fall into illusion, and he is cheating.
Unless one has perfect knowledge from disciplic succession, he simply
puts forth some theories of his own creation; therefore he is cheating
people. Jiana means knowledge received through disciplic succession
from the scriptures, and vijidna means practical application of such
knowledge. Kapila Muni’s sadikhya system of philosophy is based on
jiiadna and vijiiana.
