The source material suggests that a key practice for devotees is the study and performance of Parayans or Saptahs of detailed poetic Guru biographies. As noted in Chapter 0, through this study, a devotee performs Guru service. When other devotees also engage in these practices, it creates a form of public service and service to God in humanity (Jan-Janardan), helping all participants achieve the purpose of their lives.
