Religion of Love

Bhakti-yoga is the religion of love.

There are two aspects of the spiritual quest: the commitment of the head and the commitment of the heart. The commitment of the head—that is to say, reason—highlights the necessity of the spiritual quest, informs us about the path, and provides an intellectual understanding of spiritual truth. The commitment of the heart, which is bhakti-yoga, makes spiritual quest positive, absorbing, and spiritually nourishing.

'Love of God is the essence of all spiritual discipline. Through love one acquires renunciation of worldly things naturally.' 'One is able to realize God just through love. Ecstasy of feeling, devotion, love, and faith—these are the means.” “The aim of human birth is to love God. Realize that love and be at peace.”
