Everything that Shiva loves...

Lets try & offer these flowers "Maanasa pushpani" 
throughout the day, not just during our puja!

अहिंसा प्रथमं पुष्पं पुष्पम् इन्द्रिय-निग्रहः
 सर्वभूत-दया पुष्पम् क्षमा पुष्पं विशेषतः 
ज्ञानं पुष्पं तपः पुष्पं शान्तिः 
पुष्पं तथैव च सत्यम् अष्टविधं पुष्पं

The shloka enlists 8 flowers we can offer from our mind.
The flowers are -

words and action towards all creatures
2. Indriya nigrahah  - sense control and reigning
in the mind
3. Sarva bhuta daya- compassion and empathy towards all
4. Kshama - forgiveness to all
 5. Jnanam - knowledge, especially self-knowledge
6. tapah- living a life of austerities and meditation
