I'm reading Gandhi's autobiography (the story of my experiments with truth) - here's his thoughts on prayer:
"Prayer needs no speech. It is in itself independent of any sensual effort. I have not the slightest doubt that prayer is an unfailing means of cleansing the heart of passions. But it must be combined with the utmost humility".
I agree that prayer does not necessary need speech...prayer is essentially communion with God...St Paul said something to the effect that we don't always know what to say and the Spirit within us 'groans'...
this communion with the Most High is a type of cleansing...
this may not be my last post concerning Gandhi...a man who was constantly in search of truth
Hello... je viens de découvrir ton blog... En parlant de prière, je suis en train de lire un livre très pratique et très décapant sur la prière par David Pawson: Practicing the Principles of Prayer.
