26: Bhakti’s Four Pillars: Dharma and Devotion

In this episode of Exploring Bhakti, we look at the four foundational virtues that support spiritual growth in Bhakti-yoga: mercy, truthfulness, cleanliness, and austerity. These aren’t rules for control, but principles of freedom. Rooted in the Vedic concept of dharma, they are more than moral guidelines but natural expressions of a purified heart devoted to the Supreme. Discover how these virtues, when supported by devotion, humility, purity, and surrender, become a spiritual path to joy and freedom.
