We should ask God to grant us good behaviour and intellect so that we may serve society with discrimination of what is right and wrong. Please save me from the sins of my errors.
If we involve God in our day from morning till night, then God will think that this person is fully dependant on Him and He will look after us in every way. Hence, prayer must be offered compulsorily. God will thus work through us as we will surrender to Him and involve Him in all our efforts. Once when Swami arrived at my house, I used the opportunity to seek His guidance on a few issues. I asked Him that what we have to do to fulfill our purpose in life?
