"Prayer is a serene state mind..."

& BAPA said...of  "Prayer is a serene state mind, and not some singing of a composition or chanting of a mantra for the fulfilment of a desire. 


Some pray in the belief that if you ask with faith, you will receive it. 


They believe that begging is praying. 


But the Enlightened Beings say that if we entertain desires such as, 'I hope I get this, I hope I don't get that, let this happen, let this not happen,' and so on, then it is not a prayer, a millstone gets tied around the neck of the bird of prayers. 


The wings of worship are clipped. 


Now, the bird will not be able to fly. 


It will struggle in vain and ultimately die..."
