It is the continuation of our be-ing with others in the spirit world. Prayer acknowledges an awareness of the supernatural world. It is about being in touch with it. It is a meditative experience seeking harmony, balance, peace and perhaps even a different state of consciousness. Prayer transforms and transcends.
Prayer is the access or service road that joins the expressway to Wellness.
Prayer might help us honour the reason we are here. It helps dissolve anger and rage and unworthiness. Prayer is also grounding. It respects we do the best we can with what we have at any given moment and to realize that is also true for others. Consider prayer as a constant active or passive act you are evolving in.
