When an individual is strongly attached to the world and worldly pleasures, he thinks of nothing else. He is completely involved in the complexities of this material world. He enjoys it. He loves it. This attachment is called raag.
But when this strong unflinching attachment and attraction is towards God, for God, and when everything else besides Paramatma or Guru becomes immaterial and unimportant, it is called devotion or worship (bhakti).
Samveg is another name for bhakti. Longing for salvation is another name for worship. O Parmatma! What does a devotee achieve by worship?
Attraction towards the Supreme Being results in freedom from the painful shackles of this world.
Attraction towards the Supreme Divine Soul leads one to become an Arihant (one who is free from attachment and hatred)
When one worships Parmatma, he gets attracted towards HIM and gradually strives to become like HIM. True worship also enables a devotee to converse with Parmatma.
There is a pleasure in listening to the words spoken by Parmatma in Ardhamagdhi (The Lord's language) and also in spreading the teachings of HIS golden words.
If we go to the United States of America and hear everyone speaking in English but if we are unable to converse
