What forms of internal worship and daily devotion are considered superior in Chapter 26?

📖 Chapter 26

Chapter 26 describes several forms of devotion, emphasizing that an 'internal ritual of worship is superior to external offerings.' This internal worship involves profound emotional and spiritual offerings. As the chapter details, a devotee should wash the Guru's feet with 'warm tears of joy,' apply the 'sandalwood paste of pure love,' and clothe Him with 'true faith.' Furthermore, true devotion involves offering the 'eight-petaled lotus of the eight-fold sattvic emotions' with a focused mind. Chapter 26 also outlines that daily devotional practices include considering the Guru's company as the scriptures, making the listening of His life-story a sacred reading, and the unceasing chanting of His name as the primary form of devotional singing and meditation.
