A nice definition of The Process that I am trying to follow

"...true religion is not the property of any sect, caste, or creed, but the nature of all living beings. Our nature is to love God, but this love has been forgotten since time immemorial. Such love of God must be unconditional to completely satisfy the self.

We are spirit souls, but in ignorance, we identify this temporary body with the self. The cause of all suffering is forgetfulness of our relationship with God, consciousness of this relationship can easily be awakened by the chanting of God's names.

This process, which revives our dormant love of God, is called bhakti-yoga."
-Paraphrase of Sri Radhanatha Swami Maharaja
