A beacon!
Every human being is a beacon! They are constantly emiting and transmiting vibes which attracts the universal vibrations which translate into karam. This has been said by Patanjali, Mirdad and all great souls. Every thought we have becomes a nidus which attracts similar universal vibrations. One should constantly, no matter what and no matter what …
