The last time you checked a voicemail, were you talking? Or were you listening? That same silent hearing... That's how we pray. This is how we live. God is our only message.

Train without music. Eat without using a phone. Sit in a room with your thoughts, and nothing else. Magic happens when you give it space to exist." -@monkwithquotes "Mystical prayer is nothing like orthodox prayer. In mysticism, there is no outside power, person, or agency to pray to that will bring spiritual revelation to you. Prayer, then, is not petitioning for salvation, nor is it seeking some blessing from an external power. It is the receptive attitude of listening to the Divine within your own being. Prayer is finding that state of consciousness where fear and desire fade, and you come into a profound stillness and peace. It is the atmosphere of peace spoken of in the Bible. It is the "still small voice" of Truth that comes without words and thoughts, revealing the nature of Spirit. Meditation is the path to "answered prayer," that consciousness wherein the nature of God is revealed. Meditation is not an end in, and of, itself. It is the means by which you bring yourself into a prayerful attitude. The main purpose of meditation is to move you out of the realm of words and thoughts, for which there are many techniques." -John Stephenson, The Fullness of Joy  Support the show Beginning Aug 7, 2023 - 'GoOD Mornings with CurlyNikki' will host pre and post roll ads within the back catalogue.
