Prayer is the only way to lead a blessed life with success

Look at animals, they don’t have prayer because they have no desire, no belief system and above all they have no knowledge. No being other than human beings has a need to see progress, a development or change in their reality. They only live in the way they are blessed to live. But we have knowledge using which we live with desire. 

1. Prayer gives you all you want in life:  The problem isn’t having a desire. But we have a desire and also the belief that that desire will not be fulfilled. E.g. one might want to do a certain business in life, but he also believes that it cannot be done by him, or one has a desire to have something but believes that he cannot have it. This belief is based on knowledge and desire is based on your consideration of your pleasure and happiness. This contradiction between belief and desire makes one live with fear, doubt and worries. However, there is a divine answer to this. Prayer! 

‘Prayer is the mental transaction that we do for ourselves with the Divine asking for what we want to have as a physical experience. Prayer is beyond your belief system. It is a self-concept which you put forth to the divine to see as your manifestation. 

What happens if you don’t pray? Your life energy is sucked by fear, doubt and worries and you will be fighting between belief and desire. I repeat, if you fail to pray, your life energy will be sucked by fear doubt and worries. However, prayer gives you the confirmation that ‘this is what I want as an experience’. And taking a conformation from the divine that ‘this you shall have as an experience’ is meditation. Conveying what you want to have to the divine with your fullest consciousness is prayer. Also, consciously listening from the divine that ‘You are permitted to have this, or you are granted this’ is meditation.

2. Prayer brings good luck: Prayer is the mental transaction that you do for yourself with the divine saying ‘this is what I want in life and this is what I am going to have in life’.  This creates good luck! Forget about the spiritual aspect of prayer, you will be the luckiest person if you continue prayer every day without fail. Failing to pray, one lands up on bad luck. As failing to pray, you will be stuck with fear, doubt and worries. What is luck? Getting more of what you want to have and having that faster than you expected is good luck. This is possible only with prayer. 

Prayer doesn’t give you any more power, it utilizes the power you already possess to make you a lucky person. Prayer will make you experience good luck all the time. Not just good luck, it will also eliminate the bad luck you are supposed to experience. Since along with getting what you want it is important not to have what you don’t deserve to have. Being stuck isn’t a problem, being stuck where you don’t belong is a problem. Prayer has the power to raise you above the present level and experience happiness in every aspect of life. 

3. Prayer is for you alone: The highest truth is that prayer is not essential for god. No, prayer is essential for you to experience good luck all the time, even in bad situations. Remember prayer is not for others or for god. Prayer is for me to convey what I want to the divine. 

One should follow one more principle with prayer. Be conscious of this ‘am I aware of what I am thinking’. Since the most fundamental requirement of prayer is to be backed up by your consciousness with one simple formula ‘what is important isn’t what is happening in the world but what is happening in your mind’. You don’t need to know the reality, but you need to know what is running in your mind as your mentality. Ask yourself, “Is this the same thing I have asked in my prayer”? This comparison is possible only when you practice prayer. If your thoughts are in conflict with your prayers, you are doubting god; and this results in bad luck. What is important is to do the prayer and not to bother about what is happening in the world but be aware of what is happening in the mind. Now everything has to change, and everything will change.  

In simple words, prayer is being definite and positive about the vision you hold for the future and once prayer becomes a part of your daily rituals, your life will be filled with miracles in every aspect of life!!

Wishing you a life full of peace, success and happiness.
