Dear Valaya,

 

Invoke the goddess Psyche by all means.

 

She is Cupid's consort and cannot help but attract love.

 

Use her powers to see past your negative thoughts to the path of spiritual advancement.

Dear Talasiga,

How many meanings can one poem have?!

Similarly,

 

In a competition a competitor prays to God for the first place in the name of his country and his family, but in essence all he seeks from God is 2nd and 3rd place for his opponents.

 

Dear ggohil,

This is a reasonable point for discussion and I am distressed that it has been ignored by many of the participants in the discussion so far.

Surely a prayer seeking harm or emnity to any being will only result in harm to the person praying.

To believe that God is on the side of such a person is pure delusion.
