HOW TO DEVELOP BHAKTL

You should have knowledge of God. Then only can you love Him. You should approach saints and Mahatmas and listen to the Lord's glories.
Saints declare that there is an all-merciful, omni-potent, omniscient, omnipresent God. You should study the Bhagavad Gita, Bhagavata, Ramayana and other scriptures. Through Satsang and the hearing of scriptures one gets admiration, attraction, attach¬ment and supreme love for the Lord. You cannot know Him without loving Him. There is love when you perform actions. Without concentration on God you cannot love Cod.
