Yes Jasmine I completely agree with you of the need for not being biased.
I try to focus on the subject only as much as possible, and the comments are one of the best ways to ensure that there is no mere one sided view presented, because being just another human even I might be unknowingly biased, or might be that the information I have is incomplete or incorrect.
Open discussions lead to more clarity.
Thanks for your nice words

Gurudev,

Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind words.

You are right about too much focus on one’s own self – that could lead to selfishness. My point was if one is introspective and honest with oneself and before God first, then one can be more effective in helping fellow humans. Something like “”when I point my finger at someone, there are three more pointing back at me.”"

I have just recently been around your articles. I am impressed by your research, and much more with your desire to dig deep.
One thing I would like to say, if I may, is continue in your research and knowledge without personal bias. This I say most respectfully.

nice poems and articles – simple and effective

God save me from thinking only about myself
In the disguise of perfecting one’s own self
For I am least interested to come to your heaven
When fellow humans here are experiencing hell

No use Mr.Gurudev, God has given up. You have to save yourself from his followers. Remember that God helps only those who help themselves. Now get up and help yourself.

God help me not to waste time
On finding fault with the ways of others
The yardstick I use for them
Is that yardstick that I will be measured by in every sense

God save me from deception, from half-truths and lies
Help me to first see what within me belies
Save me from spiritual pride and slander
God save me from myself and make me your true follower.
