Bhakti is one's faith, commitment, non-compromising, undoubted, one's breath, unity of community, one focused devotion to the cause. One's degree of devotion decides the degree of success one gets. 

श्रद्धावान् लभते ज्ञानं तत्पर: संयतेन्द्रिय: | ज्ञानं लब्ध्वा परां शान्तिमचिरेणाधिगच्छति || 4.39|| 

One who is faithful, devoted, and has control over the senses quickly acquires knowledge; and having gained knowledge, attains lasting peace.

अज्ञश्चाश्रद्दधानश्च संशयात्मा विनश्यति | नायं लोकोऽस्ति न परो न सुखं संशयात्मन: || 4.40||

But persons who possess neither faith nor knowledge, and who are of a doubting nature, suffer a downfall. For the skeptical souls, there is no happiness either in this world or the next.

व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिरेकेह कुरुनन्दन । बहुशाखा ह्यनन्ताश्च बुद्धयोऽव्यवसायिनाम् ॥ 2.41॥ 

Those who are on this path are resolute in purpose, and their aim is one. O beloved child of the Kurus, the intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched. 

उद्धरेदात्मनात्मानं नात्मानमवसादयेत् । आत्मैव ह्यात्मनो बन्धुरात्मैव रिपुरात्मन: ॥ 6.5॥ 

Elevate yourself through the power of your mind, and not degrade yourself, for the mind can be the friend and also the enemy of the self. a

बन्धुरात्मात्मनस्तस्य येनात्मैवात्मना जित: | अनात्मनस्तु शत्रुत्वे वर्ते तात्मैव शत्रुवत् || 6.6||

For those who have conquered the mind, it is their friend. For those who have failed to do so, the mind works like an enemy.

सत्त्वानुरूपा सर्वस्य श्रद्धा भवति भारत । श्रद्धामयोऽयं पुरुषो यो यच्छ्रद्ध: स एव स: ॥ 17.3॥ 

The faith of all humans conforms to the nature of their mind. All people possess faith, and whatever is the degree of their faith, that is verily what they are. 

Countries and cultures are made by the degree of Bhakti Yoga they possess towards a common goal.

Example 1: Muslim Religion is spreading fastest because their degree of Bhakti Yoga is higher than anyone else.

*Example 1: :** Certain religions may foster harmful fanatics globally, and the unwavering commitment of these fanatics influences the intellectuals within their own communities, leading them to join the same cause and further empower the extremists. Conversely, individuals from other religions may lack the level of *Bhakti Yoga* towards true knowledge, which consequently delays the arrival of truth and peace on our planet.

Additionally, some religions have specific nations where individuals of different faiths face intolerance, while many other countries welcome their religion-specific refugees and tolerate their extremist behavior. This ultimately contributes to the decline of those nations,. The reason lies in degree of Bhakti Yoga or commitment of Muslims towards the single objective of spreading their religion, while other religions lack the objective of converting and also lack the degree of Bhakti Yoga in their religion as well as their goals.
