Here is the RAMAYAN’S Navadha Bhakti in You Tube :
In RAMAYAN (Ram Charit Manas) Goswami Tulsi das writes about Navdha Bhakti. In Aranya Kand Shri Ram tells to Shabri about Navdha Bhakti
Shri Ram tells to Shaburi …
…NOW i TELL YOU THE NINE FORMS OF
DEVOTIONS, PLEASE LISTEN ATTENTIVELY
AND CHERISH THEM IN YOUR MIND.
(1)-THE FIRST IN ORDER IS FELLOWSHIP WITH
THE SAINTS,
(2)-THE SECOND,IS MARKED BY FONDNESS
FOR SATSANG,
(3) -HUMBLE SERVICE OF THE LOTUS FEET OF
ONE`S PRECEPTOR (GURU ) IS THE THIRD FORM OF
DEVOTION.
(4)- WHILE THE FOURTH TYPE OF DEVOTION
CONSISTS IN SINGING GOD’S
PRAISES WITH A GUILELESS PURPOSE.
(5)- MUTTERING GOD’S NAME WITH UNWAVERING
-FAITH CONSTITUTES THE FIFTH FORM OF
ADORATION REVEALED IN THE VEDAS,
(6) -THE SIXTH VARIETY CONSISTS IN THE
PRACTICE OF SELF-CONTROL
AND VIRTUE , DESISTING FROM MANY FOLD
ACTIVITIES AND EVER PURSUING THE
COURSE OF CONDUCT PRESCRIBED FOR
SAINTS.
(7)- HE WHO PRACTICES THE SEVENTH TYPE
SEES THE WORLD FULL OF GOD WITHOUT
DISTINCTION AND RECKONS
THE SAINTS AS EVEN GREATER THAN
MYSELF.
(8)- HE WHO CULTIVES THE EIGHTH TYPE OF
DEVOTION REMAINS CONTENTED WITH
WHATEVER HE GETS AND NEVER THINKS
OF DETECTING OTHER`S FAULTS.
(9)- THE NINTH FORM OF DEVOTION DEMANDS
THAT ONE SHOULD BE
GUILELESS AND STRAIGHT IN ONE`S
DEALINGS WITH EVERYBODY, AND
SHOULD IN HIS HEART CHERISH IMPLICIT
FAITH IN GOD WITHOUT
EITHER EXULTATION OR DEPRESSION….
WHOEVER POSSESSES THESE
FORMS OF DEVOTION BE HE MAN OR
WOMAN OR ANY OTHER CREATURE-
SENTIENT OR INSENTIENT, IS MOST DEAR
TO ME ….
FRIEND, DON’T FORGET TO WATCH RAMAYAN’S Navadha Bhakti in You Tube :
| February 06 | Inner Renunciation |
| A lazy person never finds God. An idle mind becomes the workshop of the devil. But persons who work for a living without any wish for the fruits of action, desiring God alone, are true renunciants.
Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda, “Sayings of Paramahansa Yogananda” HAVE A BLISSFUL LIFE! : ) |
