Bhakti Ratnavali - or A Necklace of Devotional Gems
Compiled by Vishnu Puri
An anthology of about four hundred verses selected by a medieval ascetic named Vishnu Puri, from the Srimad Bhagavata. In these verses we get a clear outline of the doctrine of Bhakti, both in its theory and practice, as conceived by the great devotional text, the Bhagavata.
Jnana teaches that the world should be given up, but not on that account to be abandoned. To be in the world but not of it -- is the true test of the sannyasin.
-Swami Vivekananda
