PRAYERS
Prayers are not mere words .Their vibrations make you resonate at a level at which you can come closer to our vibrations . You all think that prayers will protect you from evil and that it will help you solve your problems . It will do no such thing . It only makes you vibrate at the high level so that you can gain access to your own soul energies which are already present , to do all the desired things , whether it be to fight off evil or do any other wish fulfillment work . When you pray your soul gives you messages and power which you can use for whatever purpose (you want) .That is why even those misguided persons who worship, what they call, the devil, also pray because (and this is important to always remember) your soul has the power which you can use to do wrong with if you so desire .Has this been understood?
Q:. Does that mean that it is more important how you pray than what you pray ?
Yes, my son , that is very important . A simple prayer is all you require but prayers are generally long because a very short sentence will not make you vibrate at (that high) level . A person who is spiritually very advanced can merely say OM or GOD and that would be all the prayer that soul would need .
Q; Sir , then does silent prayer work at all ?
Yes, it serves the purpose of making you realize the power of God that you can possess if you wish but because vibrations of thoughts are different and at a lower level than words, the task of accessing your soul (energy) becomes very difficult . But a silent prayer said repeatedly through the day will bring you peace and make your mind at ease and thus the readily accessed energies can be yours all the time . Even the repetition of OM or GOD is enough as a silent prayer through the day.
Q : How can we involve our children in prayer ?
Your children will learn by example . Already your children know more about us than most children of their age . Involve them in all aspects of your spirituality and they will learn all that their souls need to absorb . Prayers are so powerful, and children so pure and clean, that the vibrations are picked up very easily and they learn soon to reach that level of vibrations by themselves.
Q : Sir , while praying should we try to be oblivious of our surroundings and keep a blank mind so that messages can come through ?
No , my child , not at all . Prayers are not meant to take you away from your world . They keep you with your surroundings but they open a window through which you can see and hear and touch your soul . You think you know your soul and are constantly one with it . It might surprise you all to know that your soul is seen or heard or felt rarely in the life of people . It needs a disciplined , structured and regular regime by which you can make it happen regularly as and when you want .
Q: Sir , what is the difference between prayer and meditation ?
You already know what prayers are . Meditation is another process altogether. It is only when you have learnt to pray and access your soul energies that you can meditate . Meditation involves your soul accessing far higher energies but if you first cannot access your own soul energies how will you access even higher energies ?
