According to the teachings, what is a practical method for cultivating devotion and good thoughts?

A practical method for fostering devotion is detailed in Chapter 19, which advises that if a 'wave of good thoughts arises' in the early morning, 'one should certainly nurture it.' Nourishing these thoughts brings great satisfaction and helps the intellect develop. The text provides a personal testimony of this practice, describing a decision to perform continuous chanting of Rama's name. This began on a Wednesday night and continued upon waking, leading to a 'firm resolve in the mind.' This experience confirmed the saints' saying, brought peace to the mind, and revealed the tangible benefits of actively nurturing positive spiritual thoughts as a daily practice.
