Bakti Bhav with Lord Krishna.

Hare Krishna Prabhu ji's and Mata ji's

PAMHO. 

Please help me to get my doubt cleared.

There are 5 types of Bhakti Bhav which a devotee can have with Lord, and Bhakti is there in every bhav, but is it possible to have two bhakti bhav with lord ??? or we are restricted to only 1 bhav ?? The more we get advanced in our Spiritual journey,the more close we will with our real bhakti bhav, but still is it possible if someone reached an advanced level of devotion and still have 2 bhakti bhav with Lord.  Kindly advise.

Hari Bol!!!!

    • Thank you prabhu ji...

      I have no qualities or qualification to please Krishna, I am the lowest of the low, and rather I would say m full of negativities, I am looking for guru in my life too but sometime feels like I might get one bogus guru (afraid as we are living in Kalyog and cannot trust easily to anyone when it is a question of accepting one guru in our life).... I am chanting and have left everything uplon Lord Krishna...

    Hare Krsna Prabhuji,

    PAMHO.

    When we are neophytes in devotion, we do not know our bhaav - whether we love the lord as a servant, as a parent, as a friend, as a lover, or passive (shanta bhaav). Therefore, we may be flitting between 2 or more bhaav. When we were child, maybe we prayed to the lord as a son, later developed a friendship relationship with Him, ..... it is possible it can change.

    Only in Bhava stage, which is the Stage 8 in the stages of devotion, does our bhaav get manifested.

    Regarding advanced devotee, I do not know what you mean by advanced - chanting for many years does not make one advanced.

    Haribol,

    Your servant,

    • Hare Krishna Mata ji,

        Hare Krsna Prabhuji,

        PAMHO.

        I have the same experience. In childhood, I used to think of Him as a child, after growing up, my bhaav has changed.

        We will not know until we reach bhava stage. Until then,

        Tumhi ho mata, pita tumhi to,

        tumhi ho bandhu, sakha tumhi ho,

        tumhi ho saathi, tumhi sahare,

        koi na apna siva tumhare

        (You are mother, You are father,

        You are friend,

        You are companion, You are one to share,

        No one is mine except You).

        Enjoy all the bhaav - maybe thats why this stage. So that the one whihc suits us the most we will be able to manifest later on.

        In all the bhaav, the attitude of servitude is there.

        Haribol,

        Your servant,

        Radha Rasamayi DD
