Teaching

Pray for Inner Peace. When you are eating your
breakfast Pray for Inner Peace, when you are
brushing your teeth Pray for Inner Peace, when
you are cleaning your living space Pray for Inner
Peace, when you are working your job and tending
family members Pray for Inner Peace. You have
the conceptualization of the divine relationship to
prayer. It is embodied rather than something
engaged in outside of ordinary living. Prayer is a
way of seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting, smelling
that interprets everything through deeply divine
ever arising knowledge. Knowledge which is limit-
less and available to everyone every single moment
of every day. So seek not to just pray when you are
in Ceremony seek to remember how to pray in union
and communion with all of your daily interactions,
actions, witnessing, working, and playing, and we
guarantee you will become a new you and delight in
your discoveries, Many Blessings.
