Bhakthi has no element of bargain.

We can request, we can beg from God.

God will give.

But we cannot barter and bargain with God. We should never think that just because we break a coconut or we offer some fruits or eatables pullayar (ganesha) should be bound to work in our favour.

Bhakthi has no element of bargain.

We just surrender to God unconditionally

I cannot demand Krishna anything just because I offer him Patram pushpam phalam thoyam either with or without bhakthi.

Now some godmen astrolgers and touts lead the gullible people to believe that if certain quantity of certain materials are offered to God in a certain way there will be certain benefits granted by God

And the number of such touts and the white collared victims are also on the increase.

Yes I do not say we should not ask for end of our problems sins and karma.

But we cannot demand from God or bribe him directly or indirectly.

Prayers are mostly answered.

That is not the issue here.
