Abstract
1.Suprabhatam, Sushwagatam (Good morning and welcome)……….
2.In love, love is given and taken rather than gifts.
3.Money might reduce the value of love.
4.Quantification of love, surrender and devotion is not possible.
5.Lord Rama offers himself to Hanuman as he felt indebted to him.
6.Prayers are generally out of expectations. Prayers should be thanks giving.
7.When ego pipes out, the grace of god reduces.
8.We surrender all our things, mind and body to the divine. He or she is owner of all our belongings.
9.Nothing belongs to us. Life is flow.
10.We take care of the things as it is assigned by god. Carefulness rather possessiveness increases our divinity. Let’s meditate on such divinity.
