A satsang discourse on the integral and demanding path of Haṭha Yoga. "If you practice Bhakti Yoga, that is also Haṭha Yoga inside, because you must maintain your devotion continuously; it should not decrease but increase." "So, bhakti yoga cannot be successful without haṭha yoga. And then it must be what we call the real devotion. That is a test. The heart has to be very pure."
