In hinduism, there are 3 ways to reach God, namely..knowledge(jnan), Karma (action) and Bhakti(devotion).





in knowledge, you try to ascertain God to suit your intellect. You learn, argue, convince about supremacy of God.





In karma, your actions are divinity-oriented. you work just enough to earn your livelihood, you don't evaluate anybody financially etc..Kabir, king janak are the best examples of karma yogis.





In bhakti, you don't try to evaluate god anyhow-just accept him as supreme and chant mantra/devotional songs, bhajans, kirtans etc..you intend to get lost in divinity. Mira is the most prominent bhakti-yogini the history has witnessed.


since in Bhakti, you start with surrendering, in my opinion, it is the easiest and the best.
Love human being universally and use your knowledge to the service of mankind.
i didnt understand what you mean by ';a';


b and c are right


each path is complete in itself


remember Krishna says- ';the one who gets situated in any one, gets fruit of both';


';this yog is free of sins and even if one starts and does not finish , he gets the result'; ; and then he goes explaining how a ';bhrashta yogi'; soon reaches his destination in next life

A person who takes any specific path like Jnana, Bhakti, Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga will attain all the others. If a person is travelling in Jnana path then he will obtain Karma Yoga, Bhakti, Raja Yoga etc .





Consider a Jnana Yogi like Ramana Maharshi! Isn't he a Karma Yogi, Isn't he a Bhakta of Lord Shiva and he even realized the ultimate ideal of Raja Yoga-Samadhi.
