25. Good actions and good conduct have been prescribed only to guide the seeker towards the path of acquiring knowledge. Therefore, giving up even Salamba Yoga in which an object such as a mantra or a form of God is meditated upon in the mind, stay steadfast in your real state sahaja swarupa, where the outside world is not perceived.

Devotion is a deeply reverential admiration for God. It is characterized by an element of separation between the soul and spirit. In love, there is a merging of the two into one. In devotion, your desire is not to establish oneness with God, but to keep your separate identity for the joy of standing apart and worshiping the object of your adoration. The attitude of devotion is,
"I am Thy son, and Thou art my Father" or, "I am Thy lover, and Thou art my Beloved" or, "I am Thy devotee, and Thou art my Lord."
In this state, the devotee doesn't want to say or feel, "Thou and I are One," but rather, "I adore Thee." Even though liberation has been attained, the devotee is free to retain his individuality in order to enjoy, throughout this life and all eternity, the bliss of beholding God and worshiping him with the offering of devotion.
When love and devotion are combined, that is the supreme form of expression toward God. Along with the reverence of devotion and the surrender of love, there must also be knowledge and application of the law by which he can be known. If you follow the law of scientific yoga concentration and meditation, you learn how to rise above your flesh consciousness, then you will realize God and can go back to the Infinite.
However, without love and devotion, the law alone is very exacting. But when with the faithful practice of the guru-given yoga techniques of God-realization, you can say with the fervour of your heart and soul, "God, You are my divine friend my divine mother, my divine father" his heart melts. These things that I am telling you are not from any text. These are truths that I receive in my communion with God.
