Prayer

Prayer is kardial dialogue and inter-active. In prayer we meet the Active Agency (the Presence) that fills this universe and who appears to us personally to instruct the heart in the unique way that each soul can receive it.

Prayer is not so much us talking to God about our problems, but God talking with us about what we next need to understand on this life-path. Prayer is, therefore, dialogical, imaginal, and co-creative. As Rumi says:

With every breath you plant the seeds of contemplation,
for you are the sower of the heart.
Day and night you behold the face of union,
for you are the mirror of God’s beauty.
Every moment you shape your eternal destiny and your resurrection,
for you are the carpenter of your own soul.
