Guest guest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Bhakti (devotion) is defined as a means of discovering the Divine reality within each being. Four steps are laid down in the scriptures to help man succeed in this effort - discrimination between the permanent and the ephemeral; withdrawal from the process of catering to the senses; positive control of the feelings, thoughts and pursuits, and incessant yearning for liberation from all bonds. Bhakti is the urge which manifests as all these four endeavours. It directs man to have God ever in mind and to cultivate love for God within him. - Satya Sai Baba As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY http://groups.msn.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
