- Page : 94
- Dimensions : 22 x 14 x 1 cm
Bhakti Yoga, or the path of devotion, is based on the doctrine Love is God and God is Love. The Bhakti yogi experiences separation and longs to meet or even just glimpses his beloved, God. Nothing else attract him, nothing else holds his attention, all else is meaningless. Bhakti Yoga appeals particularly to those of an emotional nature. The Bhakti Yogi is motivated chiefly by the power of love and sees God as the embodiment of Love. Through prayer, worship and ritual he surrenders himself to God, channelling and transmuting his emotions into unconditional love or devotion. Chanting or singingthe praises of God form a substantial part of Bhakti Yoga

Hindu Tales From The Sanskrit by S. M. Mitra (Hardback)
- Page : 120
- ISBN : 9789394885820
- Dimensions : 22.5 x 14.5 x 1 cm

Mitra, the well-known Hindu psychologist and politician, who has done so much to draw more closely together the land of his birth and that of his adoption, I am able to bring within reach of English children a number of typical Hindu Tales, translated by him from the Sanskrit, some of them culled from the ancient classics of India, others from widely separated sources. The latter have hitherto been quite inaccessible to western students, as they are not yet embodied in literature, but have been transmitted orally from generation to generation for many centuries.

Karma yoga, also called karma marga, is one of the three classical spiritual paths in Hinduism, one based on the yoga of action the others being Jnana yoga and Bhakti yoga. To a karma yoga right action is a form of prayer. Raja Yoga was both the goal of yoga and a method of attain it. The term also became a modern name for the practice of yoga in the 19th century when Swami Vevekananda gave his interpretation of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali in his book Raja Yoga.
