...l sadhana (practice).

bhakti yoga is the yoga of devotion. Many saints from different spiritual traditions have taken the approach of love and devotion to god (in whatever form they feel most inspired.) The essence of bhakti yoga is often encompassed in the devotional poetry and songs of saints such as Mirabai, Rumi, St Teresa of Avila and sri Ramakrishna.

Jnana Yoga is the yoga of wisdom and discrimination. In jnana yoga aspirants seek to discover the truth through renunciation of false ideas and wrong thoughts. He uses reasoning and discrimination to go beyond the domain of the mind and see the unity in the real essence of the universe.

In the hoary past aspirants would feel that to practise yoga it is necessary to renounce the world. However many modern spiritual teachers have shown it is both possible and desirable to practice yoga right in the heart of modern life. Worldly activities need not be separated from yoga and spiritual practice.
