Bhakti-Yoga ebook

This ancient tradition of master-disciples in the practice of Bhakti-yoga is traced back since time immemorial, and as the history goes, this knowledge had been transferred through the via Medium of the heart by Kṛṣṇa Himself. In a mystical way this transcendental science is revealed, however, to bring it to daylight we need to write it down. By this process Bhakti-yoga has been in script for over 5000 years when Śrīla Vyasadeva composed the Vedic literature. "The material miseries of the living entity, which are superfluous to him, can be directly mitigated by the linking process of devotional service (bhakti-yoga). But the mass of people do not know this, and therefore the learned Vyāsadeva compiled this Vedic literature, which is in relation to the Supreme Truth." (ŚB 1.7.6) The science of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness is the study of the Absolute Truth, a personal truth, that leads to self-realisation. What is this process of self-realisation? It starts by recognising oneself to be a minute part of the whole, a child under the care of a great parent, a fragmental part of God. Thus recognised, one can see the path of surrender, to render loving service in gratitude and appreciation. By the service one immediately earns true blessings, mercy and knowledge given by the spiritual master and the devotees of God.
