If you are attached to a finite, perishable object, you become miserable when you loose it. But if you are attached to God you get eternal, infinite Bliss.

Prahlada says: “O Lord Vishnu, may I have the same sort of profound abiding love for Thee, which the worldly people cherish for the fleeting sensual objects of this universe. May not that Bliss disappear from my heart, when I think of Thee.” ~ What a beautiful definition of Bhakti. These thoughts have emanated from the core of Prahlada’s heart. They are charged with intense feeling and devotion. Bhakti comes from the word “Bhaj” which means ‘to be attached or devoted to’. ‪It is pure unselfish love mixed with reverence. Bhakti destroys Vasanas and egoism. Bhakti elevates the mind to magnanimous heights. Bhakti begins in two and ends in one.
If you are attached to a finite, perishable object, you become miserable when you loose it. But if you are attached to God you get eternal, infinite Bliss. Without love man lives in vain. Love is vital. It is all-pervading. Give love. It shall be given unto you. Cultivate this love through service, Japa, Satsanga and meditation. Human love is hollow. You can find real, lasting love in God alone. His love knows no change. Devotion is the seed. Faith is the root. Self-surrender is the flower. Communion with the Lord is the fruit. This is the path of Bhakti Yoga. Men in their social relation develop love, affection, admiration, and other sentiments. This cannot serve the purpose of life. It is only when one develops devotion for God that one’s real purpose of life is gained. Devotion is the consummation of the above emotions.
Bhakti destroys egoism and Vasanas just as the fire destroys the wood. The Bhaktas do not care for Mukti even. They prefer always to talk with each other about the Lord, to serve the poor and the sick, to sing His Name and glories, to sacrifice everything unto Him, to take Him as their Supreme Goal and self-surrender unto Him. Mukti comes to them unasked. Mukti is their hand-maid. Unwavering devotion to the Lord is the means to attain Supreme Bliss. Have intense love towards Lord. All your miseries will come to an end. Draupadi took refuge in His Name when she was in great distress. The Lord saved her. #TheShivaTribe Faith in lord alone can bring salvation. God is love. Love is God. There is no virtue or treasure higher than love. There is no Dharma higher than love. There is no religion higher than love. Love brings the devotee face to face with the Lord. Bhakti culminates in Prema. Prema is Divine Nectar. Prema destroys pains and sorrows and makes one immortal, blissful and peaceful. Cultivate it through Japa, Smaran, Kirtan, Satsanga. Develop a heart that will burst into tears of joy at the Name of the Lord. Allow the waves of love to arise constantly in your heart. Feel the warmth of the Divine embrace. Taste the bliss of the eternal. Drink deep the nectar of divine love. When you have perfect devotion and love towards God, the whole world will be under your control!
