Do you carry your God with you?

It is always good to keep your God in your thoughts, in your heart. This way firstly you won't have any problem. If you do face a problem, you can always ask God for the guidance. He is right beside you.

I am talking about God's statue or image being carried by some people in the car or suitcase. Imagine treating someone you respect, and carrying him or her in a suitcase. Will you be keeping your God along with so many other things, may be whiskey also? What effect will it have on God, and you! No, it is not wise to carry God with you.

It is always good to carry god's symbol with you. Different gods have different symbols. Lard Shiva has 'trishool', 'linga' etc. Lord Ganesh is represented by 'swastik', 'shubh-labh' and 'ridhi-sidhi'. Maha Lakshmi has 'lotus' flower.

Main door of the house is decorated with 'shubh-labh' or 'swastik'. Some people also put 'Om' the symbol of universal sound or source of everything. You should also put 'toran', a decoration of Ashoka or mango tree leaves, which is called 'bandanwars'. You can also put a 'toran' of 'kauris', a symbol of prosperity.

Important thing to remember is that you don't place God's image anywhere except in your temple in northeast, or east corner. Other places have to be decorated with their symbols not god themselves.

Like it? Say so.
