AHETUKI BHAKTI

 A

Ahetuki bhakti[4] – the main thing is to acquire zealous love and devotion for God

“If you have loving devotion – zealous love and devotion – God cannot remain unmoved.

“How great is God’s fondness for devotion! It can be likened to a cow’s fondness for fodder mixed with oil cake. She just gobbles it down.

“Fervent love[5] and selfless devotion to God, pure love for its own sake – that’s what Prahlada had.

“You may visit a rich man just because you like to see him. When you’re asked if you’d like a favour, you reply, ‘Sir, I want nothing at all. I come just to see you.’ This is called ahetuki bhakti. You ask God for nothing – only to love Him.
