Just English

 

1st Chapter
Thus Bhakti is described.

That is highest love. That is like Amrit - Nectar. Finding which, a person becomes perfect. He becomes immortal. Becomes satisfied. Finding which, he desires nothing more. Neither grieves, nor hates. Neither engages and neither gets enthusiastic about any thing else. Having known which, he becomes as if drugged, lost as if. Stunned, surprised, and dwells in his own self.

By nature it is free of desire. Having the nature of unconcern with the worldly affairs. Exclusive devotion toward that, and unconcern toward any thing that contradicts it. Giving up of other shelters, and exclusively taking the shelter of that. Even when interacting with this world, or conducting worldly affairs, living according to that, and having unconcern toward any thing that contradicts that.

Still, the word of the scriptures must be followed. Else, doubt of falling. Bodily creatures need to attend to this world, need to eat, work etc.

Its signs are told as following as per different views. Worship etc. and affection, thus, says Parashar Ji. Descriptions of Character, acts, Glory, stories - Garga Ji. What ever does not oppose dwelling in the self - Shandilya Ji. According to Narad Ji - Offering all affairs, leaving every thing to him, Great anguish and anxiety on forgetting him. All these are true. Like the Gopis of Vraj. There they cannot be blamed for forgetting His Greatness. Without that, it is like love of ordinary lovers. In such devotion (without knowing his Glory), feeling of Joy in His Joy does not exist.

 

2nd Chapter

This is greater than Karma or Gyana yoga (Selfless action or Renunciation through Knowledge). Having the form of fruit itself.

God does not like proud, and is affectionate toward who is meek, soft and humble. Knowledge is the means for this, according to some. Others say Knowledge and Devotion are independent. Sri Brahma Kumaras (The 4 great Rishis) say Bhakti is its own fruit.

Just by seeing his Kingdom, Palace, Food etc. The king is not satisfied, and hunger does not go away. Therefore, seekers of Mukti, freedom should themselves take to it.

 

3rd Chapter

The following means to that have been told by Acharyas (Teachers). Giving up pleasures and concerns, as well as attachments. Continuously Remembering/Worshipping. Even in the middle of this world, remembering and reciting the qualities of Bhagwaan (Lord). And most of all, by grace and kindness of Great Souls or the Lord himself. The company of Great Souls, is hard to attain, hard to understand, and free from all vanity. One finds such company though by His mercy and kindness. There is no difference between Him and His beings, the Great Souls.

Strive for him, Strive for Him. Completely give up all bad company. Desire, Anger, attachment are the reasons for delusion of memory and destruction of wisdom. These waves gather into a vast ocean. Who can cross these? Who can cross this delusion? Who gives up attachment, and who serves the greatly experienced, and become self-less. Those who like secluded places, and renounce attachments to this world, renounce the three Gunas (become neutral among Gunas), and who give up concerns of gain and security. Those who give up the fruits of action, give up unnecessary actions, and renounce duality. Those who even renounce the word of the Vedas (or give up concerns of success and prosperity), find unending pure affection. They swim across, They smim across, and they help the world swim across.

 

4th Chapter

Bhakti is indescribable, having the form of affection. Speaking of it would be like asking to describe the taste from someone who can't speak. However, the deserving get enlightened. Devoid of qualities, devoid of desires, always increasing and unceasing, subtle, it is only experienced.

Having attained it, one sees only it, one hears it alone, one speaks of it alone and one thinks of it alone. Having qualities, like based on the three Gunas, and also based on the states like affliction etc. However, each succeeding state is better.

A Devotee has it easier than others. Because it does not need any proof, being a proof by itself. Peaceful, full of supreme joy. Do not worry of worldly loss, having left the concerns of worldly affairs to Him. Even on having attained success, do not give up worldly duties, however, giving up of the fruits is the means. Do not find entertainment in tales of Women, Money or devotionless people. Give up pride, arrogance etc. Giving up all states and affairs to Him, give up desires, anger, prides etc. all to him. Destroying the three forms (the modes or qualities), remain in constant servitude, constant affection, remembering.

 

5th Chapter

A single-minded Devotee is the highest. With choked throats, hair rising on their ends, eyes full of joyous tears, such great souls, talking of Him to each other, purify their families and this whole earth. They give holiness to holy places, the goodness to good actions, and truth to scriptures. Fully devoted. The forefathers rejoice, Gods dance, and the earth feels protected. Differences of caste, education, looks, family, finances, work etc. don't exist in such Devotees. For they belong to Him.

Do not engage in debates. They consume too much time, and are inconclusive. Accept and follow the Scriptures which teach Devotion, and perform the actions prescribed in them. Giving up Joy, Sorrow, Desire, Profit etc., just waiting out, don't waste even half of a second. Nurture and develop the qualities of Non-violence, truth, cleanliness, kindness, believing in God etc. Always, with full devotion, without worries, worship God. Having Glorified, very soon, He reveals Himself to His Devotees and lets them experience Himself.

Bhakti is precious, Bhakti is precious, this is true, over and over again. Attachment to His Glories and qualities, to the Looks, to Worship, to Remembrance, to Servitude, to Friendship, to loving as a Parent, to Affection toward Him, to taking His Refuge, to being One with Him, to feeling anguish at Missing Him - having eleven forms but in reality all these are just one.

Thus tell, without fear of gossip, with one opinion, the Brahma Kumaras, Sri Vyasa Ji, Sri Shuk Ji, Sri Shandilya Ji, Sri Garga Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, Sri Kaundinya Ji, Sri Shesh Ji, Sri Udhava Ji, Sri Aruni Ji, Sri Bali, Sri Hanumaan Ji, Sri Vibheeshan Ji etc. - the Devoted Teachers.

Those who believe, and become devoted to these instructions spoken by Sri Narad Ji, they become devoted, they find the Dearest Lord, they find the Dearest Lord.
