Yoga and Bhakti (Devotion)

"A'sana ma're kya' hua'jo gaii na man kii a'sh Jyon kolhu ke baele son ghara hii kosh pacash." "The ox in the country oil mill moves all day long but does not march forward. It simply revolves round the pillar. Such is the case with a Yogii without devotion. When Kun'd'alini reaches A'jina Cakra with the devotion made stronger, this stage is Sa'rst'hi Sama'dhi. This means that the Sa'dhaka and Paramatman are not two entities but one. Sa'rst'hi is the zenith point of devotion. The stage where even the 'I' feeling is lost (i. e. Bekhudii) is Kaevalya. The supreme status of Yoga is Kaevalya, Nirgun'a'sthiti (non-qualified state). The supreme state of devotion too is the supreme state. This proves that a Yogii cannot move even a step further without devotion. Yoga without devotion is as good as a goldsmith without gold. Unfortunate is the Yogii who is bereft of devotion. You will have to do Sa'dhana' of Jina'na and Karma. By doing simply A'sana and Pra'na'ya'ma, the Supreme Entity cannot be attained. The most important thing is devotion. One who is completely illiterate can attain God whereas even a triple M.A. may not."
