THREE TRANSCENDENTAL STEPS
THREE STEPS IN BHAKTI YOGA PROCESS:
1)BODY 2) MIND 3) SPIRIT
The first step is considering the realization of God, the Supreme Lord on a physical level, when the sadhaka starts to understand the connection of his life with the Lord as a Person. And this is going one on the Earth planet and is called Sambandha.
The second step is introducing us to the Process of Self Realization alone and the details regarding it, the bhakti yoga rules and regulations, most of all a deeper meaning of a Vaisnava Etiquette. This level goes on an individual soul's level, rises to the subtle plane of the demigods and is called Abhidheya.
The third level called Prayojana is going one in different dimension, Spiritual, where the individual Soul after realising the Sambandha and Abhidheya processes is realizing the Spiritual World, and passing through the spiritual planets' platforms is rising finally to the goal the Lord's own planet.
That level also creates the education aspect of the others involved in the process.
This three steps we describe more elaborately below on the next pages.
