Guest guest Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 Respected Members, My mother says that prayer is very powerful and it can move mountains. While I believe it to be true, I don't sit in front of god and pray everyday. I feel that if a person is good, does his work daily, does not hurt anybody, then God will take care of him. I mentally pray to god ( 2-second prayers)during my daily work....like " Please god take care of my daughter" etc....and saying the morning& evening prayers, teaching my daughter about god.......I don't actually spend any time in front of god and pray. My mom says that it is very important that I have a daily prayer ritual where in I sit in front of god and pray to him. Part of me agrees with her and the ego in me holds me back. If god is all knowing, then he knows the kind of person I am and that I do pray to him mentally, then why should i have to have a prayer ritual. I would like to know what the esteemed members of the list think about this. Rishi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
