Devotional Prayer may here be called as ‘PRAYER’; whereas
‘Intuitional Prayer’ may coincide roughly with CONTEMPLATION. Both type of
prayers lead to union with God. Such of them is more suited to some Sadhakas
than to others. According to time and need suitability of these Prayers may
change.Any Prayer that limits itself to the thinking mind alone is not prayer
really but! at best, a preparation for prayer. Even among Sadhakas there is no
genuine personal communication that isn’t at least in some small degree heart
communication, that does not contain some small degree of emotion in it. If a
communication, a sharing of thoughts, is entirely and totally devoid of all
emotion you can be sure the intimate, personal dimension is lacking. Here are
some variations of the previous exercise more devotional than intuitional. As
the thought content in prayer is minimal—it will easily move from the
devotional to the intuitional, from the heart to the heart. Become aware of
your breathing for a while. Now REFLECT presence of God in the atmosphere all
around you.... Reflect His presence in the air you are breathing—BE CONSCIOUS
OF HIS PRESENCE.... Notice what you feel, when you become conscious of His
presence in the air you are breathing in and out....Now express yourself to God
non-verbally. Frequently, express a sentiment through a look on a gesture ....
Then again by breathing. Express first of all, a great yearning for Him without
using words, even mentally, say to Him, MY LORD, I long for You .... Just by
the way breathe. You may express this by breathing in deeply, by deepening your
inhalation.
