Bhakti marg

Only by this bhakti path you can get anything, you can get connection, attachment, relation with Svayam Bhagwan, not indirectly but directly. So that is why Sriman Mahprabhu adviced us to follow this bhakti path. But if you follow this path then you have to leave all other path otherwise your mind will be distracted. But Rupa Goswami said very thing in Bhaktirasamrita Sindhu about uttama bhakti, he said that your bhakti should not be covered by gyaan or karma. It must not be covered. But here he didn't say that you have leave gyaan and karma, that means indirectly he said you can accept some part of gyaan and karma, but it should not cover your bhakti path. So some parts of gyaan or yoga like meditation, pranayam you can accept in your practice. But you have to be very careful it should not cover your bhakti. We do not have to completely leave this path, we have to accept some part only to develop our bhakti. So that is why we are following meditation, pranayam. These all are parts of karma and gyaan.
