"Devotional Service" is a collection of thirty-six essays discussing the ancient art of divine love, bhakti-yoga, which is the culmination of all yoga practice and the natural occupational duty of the spirit soul, who is transcendental to the changing of bodies and the relative conditions created by contact with nature.
This is a book that can change your religious life. Devotional service is the process at the very heart of religion. It is what changes religion into spirituality, except most religious people aren’t aware of it.
If you are wanting to really get in touch with your spiritual self then this is a book for you. Its is filled with detailed descriptions of how to recognise the difference between mundane religion and transcendental spirituality. It will help you to delve deeper than you thought possible whatever your religion.
This not a short book flinging pithy quotes at you and giving you the low down in five minutes. It takes some reading and concentration, but if you are serious it will impart ancient spiritual truths handed down for millennia from teacher to student in the.
The author paints layers and layers to build up the right understanding of how a person should progress through self realisation to a deep and meaningful relationship with God.
Using up to date examples and metaphors you won’t have to figure out any old timey speech.
If I had to not eany negative it would be that sometimes the author belabours the point when using metaphors, but the rest is gold.
