Vaedhi bhakti is a type of Bhakti where a spiritual practitioner does not have exclusive devotion for the Lord, but (s)he observes some ostensible vows, sprinkles cow dung and holy ganga-water, decorates the idols with gorgeous apparels and ornaments, offers flowers and bilva leaves, and chants mantras.[1]

According to Shrii Shrii Anandamurti

Whatever might be in this brand of bhakti, there is the lack of expression of simplicity of the devotee's heart.
