Premanand Maharaj Ji
Should I chase a deep meditative state, or just keep remembering Bhagwan?
Keep contemplating; the state follows
On the ashtanga yoga path, restrain the mind's movements and fix them in the Supreme. On the bhakti path, keep thinking of Bhagwan and don't chase the state, because it comes by itself.
If you are on the path of bhakti, think of Bhagwan and offer the mind's movements at Murari's feet. Don't worry about attaining a state; the state will come on its own.
