Divine Wisdom

"Devotion means friendship with God.  It means establishing close relations with God through love.  Service to God is the essence of devotion.  Hence sage Narada declared "Hrishikesa Sevanam Bhakthiruchyathe" (Service to Hrishikesa is called devotion).  When devotion is developed in this manner, Karuna (compassion) arises spontaneously.  When compassion grows, man experiences Divine bliss, free from ill-will or attachment towards anyone."
