Prayer is used within many spiritual paths. And with this idea, we can think of prayer as connecting to our spiritual nature.
​
*Prayer can be a delicate topic and YWM will be touching on this subject with respect to all members, who may or may not practice prayer.

Many who are seeking meditation are not seeking an avenue of prayer.  They may wonder if they are in the wrong place. Others seeking meditation as a form of prayer may wonder if they are in the wrong place.  We invite all to take a look at this page about Science, Spirituality, and Religion.

We invite all to share their own experiences and thoughts with respect for all others among this community.  We encourage you to put at least as much time and energy into actively listening to others as you do into speaking your heart and mind.

Many a person has described prayer as "a conversation with God".  If that is the case, then many traditional styles of prayer are missing out on so much of the conversation.  The person offering the prayer is doing all the talking.  Meditation can be looked at as reinserting the Listening part into that conversation of prayer.  Meditation can open us up to listening and receiving in so many different ways, prayer included.  And a regular practice of meditation can help to create a more mindful attentiveness to the Holy.

To behold a person in prayer is a beautiful thing, for it is evident their inspiration to taste the essence of reality.
