Prayers by the Demigods
125
The word  yoga  means “link.” Any system of  yoga  is an attempt to reconnect our broken relationship with the Supreme Personality of God-head. There are different types of  yoga , of which  bhakti-yoga  is the best. In other  yoga  systems, one must undergo various processes before attaining perfection, but  bhakti-yoga  is direct. The Lord says in  Bhagavad-gītā  (6.47):
yoginām api sarveṣām mad-gatenāntarātmanā śraddhāvān bhajate yo mām sa me yuktatamo mataḥ
“Of all  yogīs , he who always abides in Me with great faith, worshiping Me in transcendental loving service, is most intimately united with Me in  yoga  and is the highest of all.” For the  bhakti-yogī , a human body is guaranteed in his next existence, as stated by Lord Kṛṣṇa ( śucīnām śrīmatām gehe yoga-bhraṣṭo 'bhijāyate ).  Yogamāyā  is the spiritual potency of the Lord. Out of affection for His devotees, the Lord always stays in spiritual touch with them, although otherwise His  māyā  potency is so strong that she bewilders even exalted demigods like Brahmā. Therefore the Lord’s potency is called  yogamāyā . Since the Lord is Viśvātmā, He immediately ordered  Yogamāyā  to give protection to Devaki.
