Verse 4.33.14

न तपांसि न तीर्थानि न शास्त्राणि जयन्ति च ।
संसारसागरोत्तारे सज्जनासेवनं विना ॥ १४ ॥

na tapāṃsi na tīrthāni na śāstrāṇi jayanti ca |
saṃsārasāgarottāre sajjanāsevanaṃ vinā || 14 ||

There is no other way for your salvation in this ocean of the world, save by your attendance on the wise. All your pilgrimage, austerity and learning of the sastras, are of no avail to your liberation.
