So Bhakti Yoga can be considered as the path of attaining the goal i.e. Krishna Consciousness. Currently due to the impact of Kali Yuga, only the first 2 ways viz Sravanam and Kirtanam are feasible for all. Rest of the 7 are difficult for the general mass and applicable only for certain people. Therefore we should start following Bhakti Yoga by chanting Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare in the audible manner. In that way we can do both Sravanam and Kirtanam. Slowly once our consciousness becomes purified from material to spiritual, we can follow rest of the 7 ways also. After attaining Krishna Consciousness also we should carry on our loving service i.e. following Bhakti Yoga in any one of the 9 ways. In that case Bhakti yoga becomes equal to Krishna Consciousness.
