10.5 Narayan Dasa Baba
Another feature of bhakti is that not only is it a means to an end, but it continues after perfection; thus even liberated souls perform devotion. Unlike jnana and yoga, one does not give up devotion after attaining perfection. Rather, one executes it more meticulously and without any motive. Bhakti is unobstructed, or apratihata, because it is beyond the concept of material pleasure and pain. Unlike karma and jnana, bhakti is blissful during its execution, and it gives ultimate bliss.
