I No Longer Pray

According to my experience prayer creates intimacy and a sense of oneness with existence. Prayer has helped me to be one with me, a sense of wholeness with existence. Prayer helps me to see the truth. Prayer takes me to a place which is beyond right and wrong, a place of oneness. When I was a child every evening we were chanting Divine songs.we were doing what we call Kirtan. Chanting together created a sense of intimacy, a sense of oneness or "onening". My childhhod experiences have built a spiritual foundation of my life. This foundation has helped me go though thick and thin times of mylfe. It has helped me go through all seasons of my life. I love to read spiritual books and aricles, relfect on what resonates in me, have discussions with friends and family members and regularly pracice Mindfulness Meditation. We have created a spiritual community, a sangha where we virtually get to gether once a week for practicing Midfulness Meditation and have spiritual discourses. Such weekly spiritual gatherings have helped us in our journey of life. May we all find our way to walk steadily in the journey of our life! This is my prayer. Namaste! Jagdish P Dave
