Patañjali’s Yoga Sūtras are the classical work of the Yoga School of thought, one of the Six Darśanas studied in the Bhakti Tirtha course. They focus on how to attain direct experience and realization of the puruṣa, or the individual self. As the classical treatise on the Vedic understanding of the mind and consciousness and on techniques of meditation and self-realization, it has exerted immense influence over the religious practices of Hinduism in India and, more recently, in the West. For Vaiṣṇavas, the Yoga Sūtras are especially helpful in understanding the first two chapters of Bhakti-rasāmṛita-sindhu.

When you take diksha and you have a Guru, then you are accepted by Krishna. And you accept Krishna. It is Krishna who listens to your prayer. Just because he listens to your prayer doesn’t mean he is going to fulfill it. He acts according to the best welfare of the devotee. He listens to your prayer and then he decides what to do and what not to do, like a good doctor.
