Usage examples of "bhakta".

The Bhakta or devotee passes through five successive stages, _Santa_ or resigned contemplation of the deity is the first, and from it he passes into _Dasya_ or the practice of worship and service, whence to _Sakhya_ or friendship, which warms into _Batsalya_, filial affection, and lastly rises to _Madhurya_ or earnest, all-engrossing love.
