The Values of Bhakti Yoga (Vaisnava Values)
Unlike yoga systems that encourage absolute renunciation of the world, Bhakti-yoga considers engagement with the world to be an essential component of our personal spiritual development. This is why, in the Bhagavad-gita, Krishna encourages Arjuna to engage with his enemies rather than leave the battlefield. In this talk, Hari-kirtana das describes six principal values of Bhakti-yoga and demonstrate how we can translate these values into clearly defined strategies for spiritually uplifting social engagement.
