PRAYER
is our experience that we are not able to dwell in such conditions always though it is our aspiration to be in such conditions. Our inability to be so is what makes us pray to Master who is established in Divinity and seek his help to be in such a condition. Prayer precedes and follows meditation is a fact of our imperience. When Master asked us to continue to dwell in the state of consciousness in which we were during meditation among other things, he was asking us to be in the mood of prayer. It is easy now after deep meditation than at other times because the manas has been dwelling on divine for some time. Divine company is something that is found among the devout and rarely without them. Master said that when abhyasis join in a place and meditate that place becomes his temple. Therefore It would be better that all of us abide in an attitude of prayer in which many of us fortunately live most of the time.
Our beloved Grand Master has written about various aspects of spirituality. We are now blessed with access to many articles he has written. The Sri Ramchandra Publishers will be releasing a book
