Prayer is an instinctive turning towards a force which we consider greater than ourselves. By understanding that this force emanates from within us it is possible to use prayer as a tool to unlock our limitless potential.
We usually pray in times of agony, threat and need, in times of salvation when pain or the prospect of pain drives us to prayer. Desire is an inherent part of our lives; aspirations and desires spur us to prayer.
Sometimes people pray to express gratitude for fulfilment of desire or well being.
When praying for fulfilment of desires, it is important to turn inward and honestly ask yourself whether you truly want what you are praying for or whether it is a creation of circumstance or impulse. It’s also worthwhile to ponder over whether the fulfilment of your prayer will only affect your life or whether it also encompasses the happiness of others, especially your kin. Deep wisdom, compassion and patience are required to honestly include family and the world at large in your desire.
After you have done this, silence and clear the mind and turn over your prayer to your own deeper consciousness. This part of your consciousness is not bound by the limits of your body; it is present in every other particle of the universe. When the frequency of a person’s consciousness matches with the cosmic consciousness then he/she naturally attracts people and conditions which lead to the fulfilment of the prayer.
Prayer is not just turning inward; it is also being open and receptive to clues and responses from the universe. What we may consider chance is the universes way of responding to our prayer.
Prayer needs to be backed by integral action. If you pray for one thing, but take actions to the contrary, only confusion will reign. Still if your prayers go unanswered then it does not mean that they have gone unheeded. It could simply be that the time is not right or that better or different things are in store for you in the future.
