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.

 

- BABA
