You can’t have wealth and abundance without knowledge.Choosing the higher value of behaviour over the lower value of behaviour.Punya - our spiritual bank account.Fundamental of Nature: What You Give you Will ReceiveExperiment and play with the laws of nature.“You Deserve the best." You are worthy.Everything is energy. Whatever we give value to will have value.Embody fearlessness. Laksmi is a non-stop moving river.Sattva Yoga - Himalayan TantraRadical aliveness.
