  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Devotion To the Heart of Mary
Just as devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is only a form of devotion to the adorable Person of Jesus, so also is devotion to the Holy Heart of Mary but a special form of devotion to Mary.
Devotion to the Heart of Jesus is especially directed to the Divine Heart as overflowing with love for men, and it presents this love to us as despised and outraged.
The history of the devotion to the Heart of Mary is connected on many points with that to the Heart of Jesus; nevertheless, it has its own history which, although very simple, is not devoid of interest.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary
Devotion to Our Blessed Lady in its ultimate analysis must be regarded as a practical application of the doctrine of the Communion of Saints.
Some such hypothesis would help to explain the fact that the evidence afforded by the catatcombs and by the apocryphal literature of the early centuries seems chronologically in advance of that which is preserved in the contemporaneous writings of those who were the authoritative mouthpieces of Christian tradition.
Nevertheless we may believe that the simple faith and devotion of the people was often rewarded in proportion to their honest intention of paying respect to the Mother of God.

 Devotion to St. Joseph - Catholic Faith - March/April 99
In the early Church, devotion to St. Joseph was not widespread, though neither was it unknown, especially in the East.
Devotion to Joseph is Christocentric and Marian because devotion to Joseph brings one to closer union with Jesus and Mary.
Devotion to Joseph is ecclesial because the Church in her liturgy and in the writings of her popes and saints has zealously encouraged the faithful to go to Joseph.

In both these approaches the Fathers of the Church laid the foundation for true devotion to the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary by clearly indicating the union of charity which bound Them both in the work of redemption.

 C:\Documents\PiusXII\aquas.html
There are some who, confusing and confounding the primary nature of this devotion with various individual forms of piety which the Church approves and encourages but does not command, regard this as a kind of additional practice which each one may take up or not according to his own inclination.
It is enough to recall the record of that age in which the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus began to develop to understand clearly that its marvelous progress has stemmed from the fact that it entirely agreed with the nature of Christian piety since it was a devotion of love.
Rather, this devotion is a form of piety that fully corresponds to the true spiritual worship which the Savior Himself foretold when speaking to the woman of Samaria: "The hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth.

The restoration of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is the only real hope we have of restoring unity within the Catholic Church.

 Bhakti Yoga
The narrow-minded worshipper often measures his devotion to his own religious ideal by the amount of dislike he shows for the religious ideals of others.
A devotee ‘joins his mind with devotion’ to a symbol which is not God, taking it to be God.
Devotion to one ideal is absolutely necessary for the beginner in the practice of divine love.

 Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin
Consequently, we must not place devotion to her on the same level as devotion to the other saints as if it were merely something optional.
I declare that such an abuse of devotion to her is a horrible sacrilege and, next to an unworthy Communion, is the greatest and the least pardonable sin, because devotion to our Lady is the holiest and best after devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.
First, true devotion to our Lady is interior, that is, it comes from within the mind and the heart and follows from the esteem in which we hold her, the high regard we have for her greatness, and the love we bear her.

 Ecumenical Miracle Rosary
I was struck by the power of the rosary devotion because it allows one to meditate on the mysteries while saying the prayers.
I hope that Catholics will view this rosary as another devotion which can be prayed on regular rosary beads, such as the Chaplet of the Divine Mercy, given to us by St. Faustina, a Polish nun who died in 1938.
I also want Catholics to understand that the Ecumenical Miracle Rosary is in no way meant to be a replacement for the Most Holy Rosary, and it is for that reason it includes different prayers and meditates specifically on Christ's miracles performed during his life on earth.
