Anandamurti starts the discourse by saying that among the three ways to achieve salvation, bhakti is the best. He then explains the meaning of the term ''bhakti'': moving towards Parama Brahma without any second thought in the mind. Anandamurti goes on explaining the difference between raganuga and ragatmika bhakti. In ragatmika bhakti, the sole desire of the devotee is to please the Lord.<ref name="AV1"/>
On this discourse Anandamurti is clarifying that if one is to ask for anything at all, then one may ask for a ''buddhi'' (intellect) guided along the path of blessedness. We meditate upon the Supreme so that our minds will be guided toward Him and Him alone. If the intellect is awry, obtaining a great deal will ultimately amount to nothing.<ref name="AV1"/>
