Love is the highest vibration. Since this is a heavily misused word, I refer to love as that being unconditional and that gives freedom. Love that does not give freedom to the other cannot be termed as love. At the same time, freedom is a great power and with great power comes great responsibility that the "other" should recognize and act. We are all born free and thus it should remain so.
Society conditions us in various ways, even how we are named. To realize our true self, we have to break all illusions of who we really are and only then can any meaningful answer be found to the one true question "who am I?"

Money != Wealth, Wealth > Money
Money = What you work for
Wealth = What works for you, even while you sleep
Money and even wealth can buy assets, but not skills. All the money in the world can help you get good piano teachers, but can it teach you real piano skills?
What are we all if we are not able to cultivate our individual skills and talents for our own happiness and for the betterment of the universe?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Freedom
Earthly Love < Pleasure < Money < Power < Divine Love < Skill < Time < Self Love < Inner Peace < My Morals < Freedom
My Morals = personalized and completely dynamic Inner moral code by which one lives. Every individual needs to define this for themselves for their happiness and not be influenced by any books, scriptures, etc. If one's individual morals goes against the prevailing collective moral code (say law and order), there will be consequences that one must be ready to face
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Meditation = Focus inward, slowly working one's way to observing thoughts
Awareness = Focus outward and inward and more importantly on body sensations and emotions, the gap between inward and outward. Do not focus exclusively on thoughts. Attention on thoughts gives more energy and power to thoughts. If you want thoughts to reduce for inner peace, one must learn to focus on the body sensations and emotions like anger, lust, etc and not focus too much on thoughts.
Awareness > (concentration + meditation)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
When Love becomes Duty, it is important to spend "me time", recuperate, recover and love thyself and turn back some part of the duty back to love. The other non transferable part can remain as "duty with boundaries" for one's inner peace
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Gifts
The best gift is just money, cause money gives the "other" the freedom to "choose" what they want to buy with it for "their happiness".
True charity does not need branding and advertisement. If you are right handed, one's left hand must not know what the right hand provides
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Mantras
One must not chant mantras for which they do not know the meaning of and it's effects on oneself and the greater universe and that which does not make them happy to chant. One must specifically avoid mantras which require a certain amount of repetitions for intelligent beings would question the very need for such repetitions. One must avoid chanting in groups as the intention of the group must be set clearly first before chanting as well as ensuring all participants understanding the meaning and significance of what they are doing

Healing
Food can heal
Water is life
Movement is life
Life is energy in movement
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Inner Peace
For peace, detox your mind
To detox your mind, detox your body
To detox your body, detox your immediate environment
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Thoughts
Not all your thoughts might be yours. Don't attach too much importance to them. How you "act" is far more important than the thoughts you get.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Me Time
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Observation
Learn to "observe" without "labels".
Would a rose smell as sweet by any other name? Sure it would
The label conjures up associated facts with totally unrelated things and can lead one easily astray from pure observation and hence pure awareness
