Eight

Eight-folded approach to Venkateshwara: While Suta Muni narrated Skanda Purana to the congre - gation of Sages at Naimisharanya he prescribed an Eight-fold Bhakti Route to Lord Venkateshwara:

1. To display ‘Snehabhava’ or feelings of Friendship sincerely towards His Devotees; 
2. To provide Service and Satisfaction to the Devotees; 
3. To perform Puja without expectations;
4. To direct or dedicate all actions to Him; 
5. To generate Bhakti and love in all the Jnanendriyas or Sense Organs like eyes, ears, nose, mouth and skin and the corresponding Karmendriyas or Actionable Organs like seeing, hearing, smelling, speaking and feelings of the Lord; 
6. To hear and cogitate about the ‘Mahatmya’of the Lord and accord importance to whatever is said, described, sung, taught and thought of the Lord; 
7. To always keep the name of Srinivasa on one’s lips, thoughts and heart and 
8. finally dedicate oneself to Lord Ventateshwara and take comprehensive and absolute refuge unto Him! Those who are fortunate of seeing even a glimpse of the Idol of Venkateshwara are sure to experience the awe and satisfaction of nearness and lasting memory and familiarity.
