RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

The Key is Bhakti! — Part 1

How to open the gifts Infinite Consciousness has for you

One of the great things about yoga is that you come just as you are. You don’t need to read or study before you begin. Since the huge majority of people are governed by their feelings, bhakti yoga can help one receive numerous gifts from the Infinite, including peace, great happiness and enlightenment.

Devotional Yoga, Devotion, Love, Compassion

Bhakti Is the Power of Spirit within YouI

Bhakti is the heart energy, the flow, the power of Spirit in you. When you find your bhakti, the treasures of heaven and the levels of higher consciousness come to you — peace, wisdom, creative intelligence, and inner spiritual power to change things. You’ll see obstacles being changed into steps Godward. Your life becomes an utter pleasure:  delighting to be, to think, to feel, to act.

As you progress, you have a realization of your own soul. It’s called soul realization or self-realization. Further, you realize the Divine, the presence of the Creator of all this, in God-realization.

How to Succeed

As you may know, we do not charge for our courses. All Yoga World content is free and available to you with our blessings. However, we do have a simple, but important request that’s key to the transformations necessary to succeed on the path.

We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.

I Commit to Serve

This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.

Why the Commitment?
