What are the steps and suggestions for becoming Your true devotee?

[Ms. Bhanu Samykya asked: Padanamaskaram Swami, You have said that Maaya exists between a soul and God and it drags the soul away from God. But a soul with true devotion can achieve God crossing that maya. What are the steps and suggestions to become Your true devotee? - At Your Divine Lotus Feet, Bhanu Samykya.]

Swami replied:- First you must follow Pravrutti and settle in life so that you will develop worldly bonds. If you are detached from those strong worldly bonds and put your mind on God, you have achieved God. If you avoid worldly bonds and get attached to God, what is the greatness there? If you are tied and then liberated, there is greatness. Don’t imitate the already liberated souls, who have a lot of fixed deposits from previous births.
