Bhakti yoga and gnana yoga goes hand in hand, a true seeker or bhakt is not unknown from the wisdom it's just the perspective that directs the energy of sadhaka more towards surrender than curiosity. 🕉️

It depends on how you understand these two yogas.

According to Rāmānujācharya Bhakti Yoga is meditation upon the FORM of Vishnu and Jñāna Yogais meditation upon the FORMLESS Absolute Brahman.

In the 12th Chapter Krishna states that both these practices lead to the same goal but it is much easier for one to meditate using a form (rūpa) because the mind demands content, so using name (nāma = mantra) and an iconic image the process of meditation/concentration is made much easier.

Bhakti Yoga and Gnana Yoga

When a person who truly make a progress towards the supreme reality of Himself, he will naturally develops Bhakti and Gnana together in him.

Means, Bhakti Yoga is not just worshiping God blindly, But by following the Guidance of a true Guru, the Devotee will make good progress by applying knowledge in his spiritual practice. But In Gnana Yoga is not just reasoning or understanding scriptures in by using his Intelligence, Gnana Yogi is capable to leave from all distractions from this materialistic world and able to remain always in the super conscious state.
