The practice, following the rules and regulations of sastra and acarya, direction of the spiritual master, that is called sadhana-bhakti. That, every, anyone can do, provided he's serious. Adau sraddha tatah sadhu-sanga atha bhajana-kriya [Cc. Madhya 23.14-15]. This bhajana-kriya means sadhana-bhakti. So if our bhajana-kriya is proper and in the line, then anartha-nivrttih syat, then all the anarthas, unwanted things, bad habits, that will be immediately vanquished. After anartha-nivrttih, tato nistha tato ruci athasaktis tato bhavah. If this way, we shall increase our attitude of devotional service, ultimately getting shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord.
