Knowledge Yoga needs devotion Yoga




For any spiritual person the knowledge and devotion both are equally important.
Without the touch of devotion your knowledge becomes like criticizing everything. So if you are able to produce the right balance of knowledge and devotion then this balancing would make your spiritual journey faster.



Devotion means that you love everything which you see and do not see, which means you have finished the choice of liking and non liking. Now you like everything. The time you choose something you differentiate one thing from another.

So devotion means become choice less completely. 

If you want to meet Ishwar then you will have to become choice less and second way to meet Ishwar is to learn his compliance.

Knowledge and Devotion means –
Devotion means make yourself choice less or zero (shunya).
Knowledge means you learn the compliance of Ishwar to meet this power. 

When you use your intelligence and try to reach to Ishwarthen it is called Ghyan Yog(knowledge path). Ghyan Yoga means pure intelligence. This process takes long time. Very few people can practice this path.

The people who walk on the path of Bhakti yoga, they keep chanting the name of their deity and live happily. From ancient time this path of Yoga has remain important because it seems easy to achieve the excellence in this path of Yoga.

The path of Gyan (knowledge) yoga is difficult. On this path you walk with open eyes. On this path whatever decision you take you know the reason of that.

Emotions have a fast speed. Normally in people speed of emotions is faster then thoughts. That is why the Bhakti yoga is talked more then other path of yoga.

Without knowledge, without the right understanding, without opening the intelligence, if you keep walking on the path of emotions (Bhakti yoga) then that is also wrong.


Another side, without devotion, the practice of yoga is baseless.

Power of Dreams

Power of Dreams -    Power of dreams  Dreams have powerful role in life.  In dreams an individual sees himself mostly at that place and in that form where he actually wants to be. If the dreams would not have any base then many great personalities would not have been between us. Dr. A.P.J Kalam India ’s president Dr A.P.J Abdul Kalam did not born in rich family. He fulfilled his dreams with hard work, consistency and struggle and won the seat of Indian presidency. He said, “No dream is that much big which can not be fulfilled”.  See large dreams and achieve those dreams. See such kind of dreams that to achieve them the sleep should vanish from your eyes.  The founder of Dizney Land was fond of sketching cartoons.
