UPDATED and IMPROVED! When faced with diverse and sometimes opposing theological conclusions within a religious tradition, how are we-whether scholars, practitioners, or both-to discern the "truth"? Confronted with apparent contradictions in contemporary Gau ya teachings as to whether bhakti is inherent within the j va or it is bestowed to one by another, Sw m B. P. Padman bha sought to resolve these contradictions in order to nurture and nourish his own practice. As Sw m set out to thoroughly understand both sides of the argument, his exclusive reliance on and exhaustive integrated search of the traditional sacred texts established by the founders of the Gau ya lineage replicated the methods of epistemology used by the founders themselves. The reader, therefore, benefits not only from the conclusion of the dissertation regarding the nature of bhakti but additionally from the demonstration of Gau ya epistemology in motion.
