Let me define “Bhakti”:
“Bhakti means experiencing Completion out of the emotion which happens due to the higher Consciousness’ pastimes”.
Please understand, your pastimes always lead you to incompletion. An incarnation’s pastimes always lead you to Completion. Your past always leads you to incompletion. An incarnation’s pastimes always lead you to Completion! If you constantly remember what you did when you were a child, you will be in more and more incompletion. If you constantly remember what Krishna did when he was a child, you will be more and more in the space of Completion!
Leela Dhyana!
I tell you, Leela Dhyana is such a powerful space creator!
Listen: beyond a certain level, your intellect will not have the strength to create a space. For example, when you learn about the power of the space, you will create a space: 'Come on, I am creating the space to build ten ashrams, five temples, three hundred ashramites, two hundred sannyasis!'
You may be successful in some dimensions, but you may fail in some others. You might have created ten temples, you might have created five ashrams, but you would have missed in the number of sannyasis. When you fail in one, you lose confidence in yourself. Again you will create a certain space, but you may fail in one or two things.
Your intellect does not have the strength to stand up again and again and create the space and face those few failures when they happen in your life. But the emotion, bhakti, devotion is so powerful, it can create again and again tirelessly, the right space for you. That is why I tell you, always only the bhakti-based traditions survive and win the test of time, never the intellect-based traditions.
