*Bhakti Yoga – All You Need is Love*
*Love Is the Answer to Everything*
A heartfelt lecture on Bhakti-yoga as the soul’s eternal path back to Krishna.
Maharaja explains that real love reaches perfection when it is offered to Krishna and shared with His devotees.
He describes both loving service to the Lord and loving exchanges among devotees as essential to spiritual life.
With references to sastra and the teachings of the Goswamis, the talk shows how pure bhakti awakens joy, devotion, and ultimately prema.
With Chinese interpretation.
