Premanand Maharaj Ji
What is the first step to begin bhakti?
Begin with satsang
The first step is satsang, the company of saints, listening to them. Hearing about Bhagwan's love and compassion brings faith, and faith leads you onto the right path.
This is the first step of bhakti. The first bhakti is the company of saints. It is called the first bhakti.
