PRAYER

"Prayer is not asking for something.
Prayer is gratefulness;
a recognition of the huge tidal waves of love
that God is pouring on you every moment."


"You don't have to go to a church, a temple or a
mosque to pray;
Wherever you pray, God is there."


"Prayer depends on the one who prays.
It doesn't matter to whom you pray.
You are more than enough for a prayer to happen."


"No one else can do your prayer for you.
Your prayer is your own flowering;
No other bud can bloom for you."


"Prayer cannot happen with words."


"Prayer
is not going towards something
which is out side of you.
Prayer is becoming aware of the presence."


"Prayer is not a mechanical thing, a set routine;
It can never be practiced.
Prayer must rise spontaneously from within."


"There is no experience that can equal
the ecstasy of prayer."


"Prayer is not a serious thing;
you don't have to be sad to pray.
Prayer is joy."


"When you pray for peace,
peace is greater than God to you;
When you pray for knowledge,
knowledge is greater than God to you."
