Devotion
What actions, dispositions and relationships constitute bhakti in the Gītā?
Treat bhakti as a patterned orientation expressed through remembering, offering, worship, dependence and action - not as a mood word detached from the dialogue.
The text uses related terms such as bhakti, bhaj, man-manā and mad-yājī in different grammatical settings. A translation may smooth those differences; the study notebook should preserve them.
