TRANSLATION

The presiding deity of devotional faith called Sraddha

Devi , and she has two principle characteristics… one is executed according to rules, and the other according to tastes. First of all, when devotional faith arises due to fear of the rules and regulations given in the revealed scriptures, then that type of faith is known throughout the Vedas as " vaidhi

sraddha “, or faith situated in regulation.

 

Secondly, sometimes one’s faith flourishes in a similar way as that of the residents of Vraja , who all render service to Krsna with a purely spontaneous service attitude. Faith that concentrates on Krsna exclusively with such intense greed to satisfy Him is the chastest

form of faith. Such a pure, spontaneous service attitude is called " raganuga

sraddha “, and a practicing devotee who worships in this way attains the most auspicious spiritual position.

 

Due to different types of faith, these different divisions of devotional service exist. Thus the four Vedas sing of these two types of devotion… regulative service and spontaneous service. According to these different types of sadhana , one accordingly attains different perfections, which are all mentioned comprehensively in the revealed scriptures of devotional service.

 

Vaidhi

bhakti progresses very slowly toward the goal, but raganuga

bhakti moves extremely fast, and enables one to be quickly situated in the tasty transcendental mellows. By following the path of spontaneous devotional service, real taste awakens in one’s mind, and he runs and chases after that current which flows from the lotus feet of Srila

Rupa

Gosvami .
