prayer of new ideal intentions

[Guest guest]

This is what I call a prayer of " perfection " ; we know we will do things due to

our past conditioning that we no longer want to; so, the prayer tells our Inner

Higher Self our NEW INTENTIONS which is our new ideal of perfection; of course,

for some time the past conditioning will assert itself and we should not condemn

ourselves for it; sincerely offer a prayer of repentance, " I am sorry, please

forgive me, thank you, I love you " and continue as best you can; keep repeating

this prayer of perfection and your behavior will sooner or later catch up with

your inner ideal intentions.

 

" Dearest Self " below can be substituted according to your persuasion with :

Dearest Jesus; dearest Lord within me; Lord Krishna; Lord Buddha; Allah; Mother

Mary; Divine Mother; Ammachi; Father; O Great Spirit; Dada Bhagawan; etc
