Book excerpt: Bhakti-Yoga is a real, genuine search after the Lord, a search beginning, continuing, and ending in love. One single moment of the madness of extreme love to God brings us eternal freedom. This love cannot be reduced to any earthly benefit, because so long as worldly desires last, that kind of love does not come. Bhakti is greater than karma, greater than Yoga, because these are intended for an object in view, while Bhakti is its own fruition, its own means and its own end. This edition includes the Swami's ten lectures on Bhakti Yoga, plus ten more on the Supreme Devotion called Para-Bhakti.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a systematic description of how bhakti-yoga works, the practice and philosophy of it, and how to become successful on this spiritual path. Bhakti-yoga is the process that can take a person beyond mere faith and give direct experience of the spiritual strata and one's real spiritual identity, beyond the body, and to the joy that is on that plane of consciousness. It is the spiritual process that is especially recommended for these difficult times. Herein is a revelation that such a realization and experience is not only possible, but leads us to taste the greatest happiness when the soul finally reconnects to its natural condition and joyful disposition. It is like finding the home you have been looking for all your life. And now, at long last, you can reach the ultimate platform of realization, peace, comfort, bliss, and connection with Divine Love. The hankering for this has motivated all of us to seek out our real spiritual nature for many lifetimes, and now upon attaining this knowledge we have found our real destiny. Some of the additional topics within include:* What is so special about bhakti-yoga, the universal path.* Mantra-yoga, the importance of it in this day and age.* How to make sure you have a genuine guru.* Feeling ecstatic reciprocation from the Lord. * Beginning to understand and perceive God.* How the Lord reveals Himself to His devotee.* Having your own realizations of the highest levels of spiritual truth.* Manifesting your spiritual identity.* And ultimately attaining freedom from material existence and entering the spiritual world. This book is based on and includes numerous quotes and references from the Vedic literature to authorize the knowledge that is presented within.

In November 1881, Narendra went to meet Sri Ramakrishna who was staying at the Kali Temple in Dakshineshwar. Narendra became a frequent visitor to Dakshineshwar and under the guidance of the Sri Ramakrishna, he made rapid strides on the spiritual path.

Book excerpt: The goal of life is really knowledge, of the reality of things. We are apt to think that it is pleasure, and seeking pleasure in sense-gratification, we meet with so many disappointments and sorrows that we sometimes almost despair and are led to believe that all life is a vain dream with no sure foundation anywhere. It is an endless chain of cause and effect in which we are involved, and from which only knowledge of how to act without producing reaction can ever free us. Karma Yoga is meant to teach us exactly this, to make clear to us first the causes of our bondage, and secondly the method of getting rid of the causes and to avoid the effects.

Book excerpt: From the author of what has become the standard edition of The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali, an exploration of probably the most significant tradition in Hinduism, along with a rendering of key texts and parables from that tradition Bhakti Yoga explores one of the eight “limbs” of yoga. In the simplest terms, bhakti yoga is the practice of devotion, which is the essential heart of yoga and of Hinduism in general. In recent times, the term has come to be used in a rather simplistic way to refer to the increasingly popular practice of kirtan, or chanting in a group or at large gatherings. But bhakti yoga is far more complex and ancient than today’s growing kirtan audiences are aware, and embraces many strands and practices. Edwin F. Bryant focuses on one famous and important school of bhakti and explores it in depth to show what bhakti is and how it is expressed. And he supplies his own renderings of central texts from that tradition in the form of “tales and teachings” from an important work called the Bhagavata Purana, or “The Beautiful Legend of God.” This clarifying work establishes a baseline for understanding, and will be welcomed by all serious students of the spiritual heritage of India.

Book excerpt: The four types of yoga are covered in length in the current book, along with its philosophy, psychology, and practise techniques. It provides a comparison of the four yogas, outlining their similarities and distinctions. By destroying the ego, karma yoga, also known as the yoga of selfless action, aims to address the issue of ignorance. We are tethered to this world by attachment because of the ego, which was born out of ignorance. The practise of bhakti yoga involves inward purification. Bhakti-central yoga's thesis is that love is the most fundamental human emotion. Love is cosmocentric and divinely inspired in its most pure form. Raja-yoga ignites the flame of awareness of the self within in order to reach the Divine.

Book excerpt: Dear reader, you are well invited to take part. With this book we are giving you an introduction into the program, which can be practiced daily, a whole life long. It doesn't matter how old you are, or where you are from. It is equal, what faith you have, or who you believe in. Yoga is simple and direct. The Bhakti plant just needs a little faith to grow. We will share the method of Bhakti-Yoga, following the practice of Mantra-Meditation. This is uncomplicated, free of cost and can work anywhere, at any time. Further, we will share guidance and mentorship over time, to give you the support for spiritual cultivation. This book can also work as a handbook and the science of Bhakti-Yoga can be simplified for your daily use. The philosophy is vast and can be actualised in many years of study, but with devotion one can immediately bring it to life. Furthermore, we will give locations for spiritual growth, where Bhakti-Yoga can be experienced communally. The wonderful promise of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness or Bhakti-Yoga is that anyone can practice it according to one's heart's desire, but the result is eternal.
