It happens only when you stay away from all those Karmas prohibited by Vedas and do all the permitted Karmas to please the Lord only. Such a single-focussed devotee’s ignorance will be burnt by the fire of “Nishkama Bhakthi”. When the darkness of ignorance is removed, the “Swaroopa Jnanam” (knowledge of your true Self) will shine forth. This is called Mukthi. Understand, Bhakthi is greater than Mukthi”.

“Such (rare) devotees are so blissful with their Bhakthi that they do not even desire for Mukthi. Their joy reflects my presence in their life and they have nothing else to talk about. They aspire for Me only”.

Note – we may wonder why Bhakthi is so great? The reason is, Mukthi implies liberation from all worries and experiencing unending, blissful joy. In true Bhakthi, this is exactly what you experience, even while living in your body and interacting with the world!

The Lord continues, “My devotees love Me as worldly people love their children. So I am their Self and their son too. They trust me as their friend, and honour My word as their Guru. I am their well-wisher and their favourite Deity too. As they are always surrendered to Me, my wheel of Time (Kalachakra) that affects every one can’t even touch them. Thus they will know no peril, and they will be blessed with unending, eternal joy!
