Background
The general aim of any aspirant (Sadhaka) would be to
raise his self (Atma) up to the status of self realization, through self
improvement. There are three paths laid down to attain to this aim.
These are the paths of:
- Knowledge (Jnan)
- Devotion (Bhakti) and
- Activity (Yoga).
Looking from the absolute point of view, all the three paths are just one. Yet the great saints had defined the different paths of spiritual progress because the aspirants have unique personalities. This unique personality may be due to the individual's circumstances, family back- ground, varied psychic effects of previous lives, present
education and so on.
