A study on the psychological healing of Bhakti yoga

This study was focused on the psychological understanding of bhakti yoga which is one of the important types of yoga. Bhakti yoga is called yoga of devotion or yoga of love. The meaning of bhakti or bhakti yoga was reviewed through the bahkti sutras by Narada. According to Narada, bhakti has been described as the supreme love towards God and as means as well as goal for God-realization. As means to get the supreme love toward God, it is called apara(lower) bhakti, as goal, para(higher) bhakti. This study reviewed the nine practices of bhakti yoga through srimad bhagavata which is the scripture of bhakti yoga based on the worship of Lord Krishna and other practices of bhakti yoga. I tried to identify the possibility of healing through practices of bhakti yoga and the meaning of healing through the meaning of bhakti and bhakti yoga. Bhakti yoga gives the idea of holistic health in detail because it brings psychotherapeutic value as well as spiritual healing.
