[sadhaka] Who is a Sadhak (a Spiritual Aspirant; a true seeker) ?

[Guest guest]

" Krishna LovesUs "

 

I think rather than every MAN, every human being is a sadhak

(I feel that is what was meant here)

 

I feel the point is, sadhak is the one who knows this and believes in the same.

 

And the one who knows this, Being ansh of parmatma, won't have any

goal other than the love of God. And he is the sadhak (people like me, in spite

of having such understanding, keep on doing many

other things so probably cannot be termed as sadhak?).
