#MyTakeaway
Gurudev once said Puja is that which comes from पूर्णता (fullness).
Yes we need to pray when we are in desperation. In troubled situations prayer is the only ray of hope. But many a times we miss on expressing our gratitude when things are all fine. And we miss the opportunity to pray in the most supreme form.
A parent would be able to relate to this much better. When the child is not complaining or demanding a parent feels natural to give something to the child. Similarly when we are happy, joyful and content we are in position to recieve something much higher from Nature.
There is a reason why we seek blessings from elders. Because elders have fulfilled most of their desires, they are highly likely to be content. This level of contentment puts them in a position to bless.
So this moment, let's close our eyes, and think of that one thing for which we have gratitude. It can be a simple fact that we have breathing body, we have someone to love. Let's experience joy as we express our gratitude. Take a deep breath in and breathe out.
Jai Gurudev
