Message definition (Ishvara)

<blockquote>What is important is the concept of devotion. Devotion to a personal ideal of God brings with it a natural inclination to humility and service. If we set ourselves to serve Ishvara, if we dedicate our actions and surrender our wills to him, we shall find that he draws us to himself. This is the grace of God, which Sri [[Ramakrishna]] compared to an ever-blowing breeze. You have only to raise your sail in order to catch it.<ref>Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood, ''How to Know God: The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali'' (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1953), pp. 53–54.</ref></blockquote>

...o mais importante é o conceito de devoção. A devoção a um ideal pessoal de Deus traz consigo uma inclinação natural para a humildade e para o serviço. Se nos prepararmos para servir Ishvara e lhe entregarmos os nossos desejos, perceberemos que ele nos atrai para si. Essa é a graça de Deus que Sri Ramakrishna comparou a uma brisa permanente. Para aproveitá-la, basta levantar as velas^[1]
