Short lessons on devotion, daily practice and spiritual terms.

SHORT LESSON

What is bhakti?

A path of loving devotion and service.

Bhakti means turning the heart toward Krishna through loving service. It is not confined to one place or a special moment: it can be expressed through hearing, chanting, remembrance, prayer and care for others.

Begin simply. Take a few quiet minutes, hear the holy name and ask how you can act with more attention and kindness today.
