FOUR TYPES OF BHAKTAS

 God

Part Three

As per Bhagawad Gita, there are four types of Devotees who seek God.

Bhagawad Gita mentions about four types of Bhaktas in chapter 7: 16-18

“Four types of devotees of noble deeds worship Me, Arjuna, the seeker after worldly possessions, the afflicted, the seeker of knowledge, and the man of wisdom (one who has known God, and starts loving Him with all his Heart), O best of Bharatas. (16)

Of these the best is the man of wisdom, ever established in identity with Me and possessed of exclusive devotion. For I am extremely dear to the wise man (who knows me in reality), and he is extremely dear to Me. (17)

Indeed all these are noble, but the man of wisdom is My very self; such is My view. For such a devotee, who has his mind and intellect merged in Me, is firmly established in Me alone, the highest goal. (18)”

So the Lord loves only those who know Him and Loves Him in reality. Hence in order to receive the love of the Lord, it is very necessary for us to know Him first.

But as stated in Chaitanya charithamrutham 20: 122, “…the jivas who have the defect of forgetfulness, are engaged in this mundane world, [bound by Maya] forgetting their previous existence with God”.

God in order to make the Jivas remember their pre-existence with Him and take them to their original state, sends Avatars in each and every Yuga. Now the same God has come down as the LAST AND FINAL AVATAR OF NARAYANA [AS KALKI], FOR THE REDEMPTION OF MANKIND.

God says in Gita chapter 4:

Though birthless and deathless, and the Lord of all beings, I manifest Myself through My own Yogamaya (divine potency), keeping My Nature (Prakrti) under control. (6) Arjuna, whenever righteousness is on the decline, and unrighteousness  is in the ascendant, then I body Myself forth. (7) For the protection of the virtuous, for the extirpation of evildoers, and for establishing Dharma (righteousness) on a firm footing, I am born from age to age. (8) Arjuna, My birth and activities are divine. He who knows this in reality is not reborn on leaving his body, but comes to Me. (9)

So, as we all know that we are in the end of this Kali yuga, and that wickedness is at its peak: God has come down as the last and final Avatar, for the sake of saving the Righteous people who were with Him before the foundation of this world.

One God

Sign post. In English.

 When you go to meet a person at his house You can find out the right path to reach his place by looking at the  signpost there. If you go in the direction of the signpost you can find the person's house and talk to him. But if you don't do that, if you circle around that signpost, you won't be able to go where you need to go and meet that person. Prophets like Saibaba, Vallalar, Ramchandarjee, Muthukutty Sami, Veerab Brahm, etc. are like that signpost. We have to follow their path and know the "True God". Without doing it, if you follow these prophets as gods and go around them, you will never reach the real God.
