[QUOTE="Prabjyot Kaur, post: 25542, member: 345"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black][B]It is a cosmic law, that, when we praise something, we attract it towards us. For example, when we praise a person, our friendship increases. So also, if we praise ‘good qualities such as: knowledge, purity etc.’, then these qualities are strengthened within us. Since both, humans and matter, is made-up by the same ‘cosmic life force’, the same law is applicable. Saints reached/became God by praising Him/ His qualities. This is a truth. This cosmic law is a hidden secret, known only to a few people.
