→Adoration
In love for the Divine or for one whom one feels to be divine, the Bhakta feels an intense reverence for the Lord, a sense of something of immense greatness, beauty or value and for himself a strong impression of his own comparative unworthiness and a passionate desire to grow into likeness with that which one adores.

==Advaita==
Advaita, ''viśiṣṭādvaita'', ''dvaita'' are merely various ways of looking at the relations of the One to the Many, and none of them has the right to monopolise the name Vedanta. Advaita is true, because the Many are only manifestations of the One, ''viśiṣṭādvaita'' is true because ideas are eternal and having manifested, must have manifested before and will manifest again,—the Many are eternal in the One, only they are sometimes manifest and sometimes unmanifest. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/sabcl/03/the-stress-of-the-hidden-spirit#p5</ref>
