Bhakti-Yoga is the science of higher love.

Excerpt

Bhakti-Yoga is the science of higher love. It shows us how to direct it; it shows us how to control it, how to manage it, how to use it, how to give it a new aim, as it were, and from it obtain the highest and most glorious results, that is, how to make it lead us to spiritual blessedness.

✨ To meditate on today

According to Swami Vivekananda, Bhakti-Yoga, the path of devotion, does not teach us to stifle love but to direct it towards the highest, all the way to spiritual joy. Today, notice a person or a thing that you love, and extend that impulse by thanking God, the source of all love, for giving it to you.
