Prayer and Devotion
Prayer is a reflection of Bhagawan's Qualities upon Oneself
We worship the Ideal for which the Idol stands
The Idol becomes the Perfect Ideal for a Devotee
Prayer is not for any worldly gain
Pujä is the simplest practice for purifying a mind
Prayer helps us to acquire Good Karma and avoid Bad Karma
Prayer reminds us of the Power we possess in our own Soul
Prayer creates Confidence in Moral Decisions
Prayer makes us to realize the Usefulness of Human Birth
Practice of Devotion destroys Extrovertness of Mind and Introvert mind becomes Free from Limitations and Imperfections
At a higher Spiritual State, living in this world becomes a matter of joy
To have Unconditional Love for God / Self is to Live in Total Bliss
