Do they not serve, those who wait?
Do they not serve, those who only serve?
Do they not serve, those who give & not take?
Do they not serve, those who do not manipulate?
Do they not serve, those who aren’t ambitious?
Do they not serve, those who do not care about success?
Do they not serve, those who fail every test?
In fact, they are the ones that serve best.
Jnana yoga, Karma yoga and Kriya yoga are in pursuit of something more than what the current Life can give. It is the conscious step for stepping up to bigger challenges and a better Life. They have a vein of commonality that runs through them regarding the Self. The actual efforts put in for self-improvement and betterment.
Bhakti yoga is a different beast. In the wave of Life, Karma, Gnana and Kriya are different parts of the crest while Bhakti yoga joyfully rides the trough. Its an innate understanding about the futility of Life and the ‘Looking up’ for guidance, to just skim the surface of Life, before enlightenment. It is the most difficult path to start with, but once on it, possibly the easiest to cruise. It is the only path that starts with the obliteration of Self.
Then there is no doing. Just Being!
