________________ It is my present feeling and realization that the greatest yoga is bhakti yoga, and bhakti is the zenith of love. Bhakti is the name for Radha, the climax of love, the glory of love. As Chaitanya Mahaprabhu used to say, “Radha is the height of love, the greatest example of love". That is why it is said of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu that he had the body of Krishna and the heart of Radha. Within him was Radha, because he wanted to bear the pangs and see how Radha was anxious for him and was agonized by the separation. This is the greatest yoga. Consider yourself to be an instrument of the divine celestial energies of the Almighty. Bę without any personal ambitions and desires, just keep doing what is asked. I request all of you to pray for me that I may continue with this duty which I have been given by the Almighty. Let no thought cross my mind of which the Almighty may say, "He has gone crazy, get rid of him.” So, all of you are requested to pray for me, and all the adept yogis and devotees are also requested to give me the benediction that I be allowed to continue to serve. 243 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
