It is a very hard path that includes Thapas(penance), Brahmacharyam, Shamam(subsiding the mind), Damam(subsiding the senses), Thyagam(sharing with others), Sathyam(truthfulness), Shoucham(physical cleanliness), Yamam(non-violence), Niyamam(doing Mantra Japam, Easwara Pooja) etc. If you practise it through so many janmas, you will become free from ‘Kamadi doshas’ and you will know Dharma rahasyam. You will have faith in the Scriptures and Guruvakyam. Thus all your sins will perish, however powerful they are”.

Then Suka says, “The other path is that of Bhakthi. The very rare Bhakthas who have the mental purity to surrender at the Lotus Feet of Lord Vasudeva do not have to do any such sadhana. As the Sun wipes the mist, their sins get removed completely. No penance can cleanse you like devotion. The true Bhaktha will always get support from Satsang.

Even if you wash a liquor pot with Ganga water, its foul smell remains. Similarly, no prayashchitham can purify your sin like Bhagavad Bhakthi can do. Even death can not touch such a devotee.

I can prove it through the conversation between Vishnu Doothas and Yama Doothas”.
