Notes adapted from Pathwork Guide Lecture #36 Prayer:
*Prayer has a cleansing effect on your soul.
*The act of asking of and receiving from a power greater than yourself helps you develop a humble attitude. It thins the wall between you and Divine Forces in a slow and gradual process. *To lose your fears, you must go through them. Pray to know specifically what you fear.
*The experience of God's love, depends on how receptive one is.
*Prayer is a mental/feeling process. When you pray for someone, think of them and feel all of your truthful, deepest wishes for God's grace for them.
*Pray for:
-spreading of truth
-unhappy souls
-loved ones and those you see as enemies
-peace, love, justice, understanding and spreading of Divine Law
cultivation of the above in yourself
*Ask:
-What do I need to learn?
-to see the truth
-to deepen understanding
-for courage and humility
-for willingness to do God's will
-to find the cause and effect in the areas where you feel unfulfilled

*Pray from your immediate needs.
*Prayer changes a vicious circle to a spiral that leads you toward Light ...you may bump up against the same issues, but as you face them with the intention to see how you create them, you gain profound insights and understanding.
