Bhakti Yoga - The Path of Devotion
Through wholehearted love and surrender to the Divine, one easily attains liberation.
Bhakti Yoga is the path of loving devotion. By cultivating an intimate, loving relationship with the Divine, the heart naturally purifies itself of selfish tendencies. This path suits emotional temperaments and is considered the easiest and most natural by many teachers. Love dissolves the ego more sweetly than knowledge or will. Research on love and compassion meditation shows powerful effects on well-being, relationships, and even physical health.
Those who fix their minds on Me and worship Me with unwavering faith, always absorbed in thought of Me—I consider them to be the highest yogis.
Ramakrishna taught that Bhakti is the easiest path in this age—when the heart melts in love, all knots of ignorance dissolve naturally.
