Dear Friends, Hope this meets you all well.   Most of us are blissfully unaware of the many negative forces that bombard us every day. Saintly persons play a mojor role in removing some of these thick coverings. In making sacrifices for humanity, they allow us to exercise our free will fully  While it is still upto us how we use our free will, these exalted souls create an atmosphere which facilitates a superior freedom of choice. It is said in the scriptures, that even a moment of associaiton with such exalted saints will help one attain all success.
