    Dear AC,
    You have paid me a rich compliment - I accept it with humility & pray Mother help me deserve this.
    I have this compilation with me for the past few years & I had an urge to share it with you all at the appropriate time. Now that a thread was started on this, it was the opportune moment !
    Infact, paper flowers, artificial flowers etc can also be offered to Mother. For the past 5 yrs, I have a couple of bright red hibiscus flowers, by the 2 sides of Mother, both in paper, a friend got me from S'pore !
    Love
    To
    Chitra
    From
    Chithra.

    Dear Chitra ma'am:

    That was wonderful reading on the spiritual significance of flowers. I'm glad that you gave English names as well. Though I do understand basic Tamil, I cannot read and write in Tamil, so that sure is a great help.

    Couldn't help but think of Bach flower remedies as I went through your list. The remedies are prescribed for emotional problems.

    Dear Sindhu,
    This is different from Bach flower remedies. Bach flower is directed at a particular characteristic or emotional state. The remedies contain something called the energetic signature of the flower, and that this can be transmitted to the user

    Here, we offer Mother the flowers requesting for a specification.
    Eg - to develop devotion in our minds as a habit, we must offer thulasi to Mother.

    Love,
    Chithra.

    Yes ma'am, spiritual significance and bach flower remedies are two different things altogether.

    But since it came to my mind, couldn't resist mentioning it.

    'To develop devotion in our minds as a habit, we must offer thulasi to Mother.' - I particularly liked this one.

    Thanks again.
    Sindhu
