Swami Mukundananda
Is humility necessary on the path of bhakti?
Humility is the prerequisite of bhakti
Humbleness is the essential prerequisite in bhakti (devotion), and the writings of saints throughout the world all emphasize it. The reason is that the moment there is pride there is Maya, there is untruth.
So in this bhakti the essential prerequisite is humbleness. Read the writings of the Saints throughout the world and you will note that they all emphasized humbleness.
