NATURE OF DEVOTION
I just came across reading these excerpt.
I would like to know what the writer wants to convey. Please can anyone explain the below to me.
[Nature of devotion is such that you feel longing in its absence.
Once you get a glimpse of devotion then its absence causes perturbation in mind.
It is not that devotion is absent but you feel as if it is not there.
Shri Narada said that the very indication of devotion is that you experience bliss in its presence and its absence makes you restless. Consider yourself as lucky when you experience such restlessness.]

It's a poor analogy, but he is saying that a person's relation with devotion is like the relation between a young child and his mother. When the mother is with the child, the child feels happy and safe. If the mother is away, the child knows this and is upset.
