Asking the Blessing of God

of air. So is the case of a high thinker. Nothing has the power to
stop the journey of a high thinker.
A high thinker is free of all kinds of negative thought. He is
free of anger and lust; he is free of intolerance and confrontation,
he is free of hate, he is free of frustration and despair, he is free of
tension and stress, he is free of complaint and protest.

A high thinker is free of all kinds of negativity and he is full
of all kinds of positive thoughts. High thinking makes a man
superman. High thinking develops the very important ability
to act and not to react. Such a person is able to ignore all the
problems and avail all the opportunities.

Asking the Blessing of God

veryone asks blessings from God, but he or she feels that it is
Ea unilateral blessing; I have nothing to give God in return for
His blessing. In such a situation, a person faces the questions:
how to ask blessings from God, how to invoke God for His
blessing towards him.

When one reads the Quran with this mind, one finds a very
relevant reference in the Quran. In one part of the Quran there
are the details of the law of inheritance, how to apportion the
bequest among relatives after the death of a family member. In
this regard in chapter Al-Nisa’ (Women) Quran says:
If other relatives, orphans or needy people are present
at the time of the division, then provide for them out
of it, and speak kindly to them. (4:8)
Here God Almighty laid a principle for man to give to not
only to the deserving ones but also to those persons who do not
deserve. So, one can make this a point of reference for prayer.
