Prayer Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon

Prayer

Rating: 5.0


When you pray
For your own well-being
Or that of your near or dear
Your prayers are tainted
By selfishness.


But, your prayer
Is pure and selfless
If it is for a stranger
You haven't even met,
And it will be answered.

For, His love for us too
Is pure and selfless.

though i was taught God wishes to hear all prayers, for he is our Father and our friend to talk to and Definitely wishes to hear prayers for those dear to us and strangers too! ..))) (Again true beauty within this poem) ! ..+++++

When anybody in the society is in distress it is our duty too to pray for the person. But there are so many ways to turn our prayers for all such people all over the world. LOKA SAMASTA SUKHINO BHAVANTU
