Arrange flowers in front of a Deity with Spiritual Emotion !

   Ms. Trupti Gawde hails from Ramnagar in Karnataka. She performs seva in the kitchen in Ramnathi Ashram. She has inherent bhav and is in constant communion with God. She has few personality defects and her ego is less. Virtues such as obedience, consistency, purity of mind etc. are her strong points and hence, she is swiftly progressing spiritually.

   If flowers offered to Deities are arranged with bhav (Spiritual emotion), the respective Deity Principle comes to the venue (of such an arrangement) in greater proportion, and its benefit can be availed for a longer time.
   Given here are two arrangements made with bhav by Sanatan’s seeker Ms. Trupti Gawde in the temple in H.H. Dr. Athavale’s room. From these arrangements of flowers, we get to learn how our bhav should be while performing seva unto a Deity.
   While arranging flowers, strictly follow the science of Spirituality !
   These arrangements are depicted only to highlight how the arrangements are systematic and attractive where there is bhav. These arrangements are not correct from the perspective of science of Spirituality; for example - placing a red flower over a white flower and placing flowers on tulsi (Holy basil) leaves. Yet, because Ms. Trupti has bhav, God accepts her offerings; however, everyone may not have the same level of bhav.
   Hence, each Deity should only be offered appropriate flowers in an appropriate manner. The flowers could still be arranged as shown in the pictures, provided the science of Spirituality is followed !
