Bhakti: The Ultimate Connection

Chapter 2, 3

Bhakti, the process of engaging one’s senses in the loving service of the Supreme Lord, is described in more detail: the ears and tongue are made to hear and chant about the Lord, the head should bow down before the Lord, one’s hands should be utilised in serving the Lord, the eyes should constantly see the Lord and the legs should carry one to the holy places. On the other hand, a body that has not been blessed with the sacred foot dust of the pure devotee is spiritually dead, and the heart that does not melt in ecstasy whilst chanting is considered steel-framed.

The conclusion: one who fully engages their senses in sincere devotional service will find their entire consciousness being transformed.
