SELF NARRATION (આત્મનિવેદન), A KIND OF BHAKTI

There are nine kinds of bhakti and self narration is one of them. When we self narrate tendencies and reactions of the mind that develops when we act in certain improper way to certain people and circumstances, mind's load seems to ease.  It is important to do this with heartfelt sincerity and keeping in mind the purpose behind self narration is to get freedom from such reactions. By the grace of God I have done self narration of my natural inner tendencies with open heart during my sadhana period. It is not possible for sadhak to move forward without such heartfelt narration. It is a giant step forward for the sadhak. In fact when there is real desire to move forward, sadhak cannot but confess such tendencies of the mind with open heart. It is a real sign of bhakti if such heartfelt confession is done.
