What is Devotion? – Workshop by Br. Dyanesh Prabhu / Amit Palicha SUNDAY, JULY 26th, 2020 @ 2:00 PM
<!–
–>
This sunday we will have our regular Bhajans from 2 PM followed by “What is Devotion?” Workshop by Br. Dyanesh Prabhu / Amit Palicha from 2:45 PM
Sathya Sai Baba says “
Among all forms of spiritual practice, Bhakti (devotion to the Lord) is the easiest and holiest. Bhakti is derived from the root “Bhaj”, with the suffix “thi”. It means Seva (Service). It denotes a feeling of friendship coupled with awe. For one who is a creature of the gunas (Satwa, Rajas, Tamas), to understand what transcends the gunas, an attitude of humility and reverence is required. “Bhaja Sevaayaam” (worship the Divine through Seva). Bhakti calls for utilising the mind, speech and body to worship the Lord. It represents total love. Devotion and love are inseparable and interdependent. Bhakti is the means to salvation. Love is the expression of Bhakti. Sage Narada declared that worshipping the Lord with boundless love is Bhakti. Sage Vyasa held that performing worship with love and adoration is Bhakti. Sage Garga declared that serving the Lord with purity of mind, speech and body is Bhakti. Sage Yajnavalkya held that true Bhakti consists in controlling the mind, turning it inwards and enjoying the bliss of communion with the Divine. Another view of Bhakti is concentration of the mind on God and experiencing oneness with the Divine. “
