Bhakti and Dvesha are as fire and water; devotion and hate cannot dwell together. I love those who feel no difference between grief and joy, affection and dislike, good and bad: If hate, in whatever form, in howsoever slight a quantity resides in the heart, that person cannot be a Bhakta. The Bhakta must be convinced that all this is Vasudeva, ‘Vasudevah sarvam idam. That is to say, one’s own Atma is everywhere, in everything; this truth must be realised, acted upon and experienced. Hating another is hating oneself; scorning another is but scorning oneself; finding fault with another is but finding fault with oneself’, Krishna said. (GV, pp. 206-207)
