There's this misconception about advaita being opposite to that of the bhakti marga or the path of devotion. One needs to understand that advaita vedanta emphasizes all paths of sadhana which includes jnana, Karma and bhakti. As given in this verse of the Gita : na hi jñānena sadṛśaṁ pavitram...

There's this misconception about advaita being opposite to that of the bhakti marga or the path of devotion. One needs to understand that advaita vedanta emphasizes all paths of sadhana which includes jnana, Karma and bhakti. As given in this verse of the Gita : na hi jñānena sadṛśaṁ pavitram iha vidyate tat svayaṁ yoga-saṁsiddhaḥ kālenātmani vindati (Gita - 4.38) Which means, In this world, there is nothing so sublime and pure as transcendental knowledge. Such knowledge is the mature fruit of all mysticism. And one who has become accomplished in the practice of devotional service enjoys this knowledge within himself in due course of time. Advaita vedanta upholds the same. It says that no path alone is sufficient for the truth to be realised although the path of knowledge is superior to the other two because the realization of the truth comes after we become unbounded by karma and learn the path of devotion to surrender and renounce ourselves. read less

It is possible for someone who practices Bhakti Yoga to eventually experience a state of non-dual awareness, where the boundaries between the self and the divine dissolve. However, this is not a guaranteed outcome of Bhakti Yoga, and not all Bhakti practitioners may be interested in or seek this state of realization. Ultimately, the path to self-realization is unique for each individual, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. It is important to find a path that resonates with you and that you feel drawn to, and to approach your practice with sincerity and dedication. read less

Bhakti Yoga can potentially lead to Advaita, but it's not a guaranteed outcome and depends on the individual's spiritual path and experiences.
