A devotee absolutely depends upon God alone.
He is in communion with the Lord. He is ever peace-
ful and blissful. Others run after powers etc. They
depend upon their self-effort. They fail and become
miserable.
You should not think that God Himself is partial
and subject to feeling of love and hatred. It simply
means that egoism is a great obstacle to the realisa-

egoism the more your heart will be filled with God.
The grace of God is always there. Only the ego pre-

more a barrier than an aid to spirituality.
Those who tread the path of Jnana and Yoga are
liable to become proud of their powers and wisdom.
Bhaktas are humble. Humility is the foundation of
Bhakti Yoga.
God has no hatred or partiality for anyone. All
are equal in His eyes. His heart is full of love even
for the proud. He delivers the proud and the haughty
