What actions, dispositions and relationships constitute bhakti in the Gītā?

A simple beginning

Treat bhakti as a patterned orientation expressed through remembering, offering, worship, dependence and action - not as a mood word detached from the dialogue.

Three places to read

  1. 1
    BG 9.26

    Links a simple offering with bhakti and the person who offers.

  2. 2
    BG 9.34

    Sequences attention, devotion, worship and orientation.

  3. 3
    BG 12.6–7

    Describes practices and divine response in relationship.

Try it

Turn each action word into an observable weekly practice while keeping the verse reference attached.
