Talk:Bhakti and Bhakti Yog are more Egalitarian than another Yogas

By Vishal Agarwal

Certain Vedic rituals have specific prerequisites, including societal roles or responsibilities such as rituals performed through a Brahmana. However, Bhakti transcends all such boundaries. It is a universal path where every being—regardless of their background, circumstances, or even past actions—can express their devotion to Ishvara.

In contrast, the path of Jnana Yog often requires access to a Guru, sufficient resources, and the leisure to absorb spiritual wisdom, making it challenging for those with demanding lives or limited means.

Similarly, Karm Yog, which emphasizes selfless and spiritualized action, may not be accessible to individuals with physical limitations. Dhyana Yog typically requires a serene environment and the ability to dedicate focused time to meditation, which may not be feasible for everyone.

Bhakti Yog, on the other hand, has minimal prerequisites and is open to all, making it the most accessible and widely followed path to Moksha as described in the Bhagavad Gita
