PRAYER
by Paracelsus
I, Paracelsus—a healing doctor and philosopher, and a man interested in the
cosmos in his time, and interested in the cosmos now—wish to speak of prayer.
Prayer is not given in mere words. Prayer is a force released in man, a force
like magnetism, like an electrical force, a force that rises and spreads
according to the sincerity of the prayer and according to its powerful
projection. There are earth-range prayers rising barely above the magnetic field
of your planet. These are prayers for loved ones, for friends, for your own
family. Spirit beings from the realms of loved ones and relatives take charge of
them and see that these prayers are fulfilled.
Each prayer you utter must go to the place to which it is sent and achieve that
which it stipulates, but some are weak and lose themselves in contradictory
vibrations. Some are strong and pierce the negative walls surrounding earth and
reach their destination. If you unite in prayer, unite in purpose, unite in
faith, you have, of course, a stronger sending station and you attract from our
realms all those who, like you, are interested in the things you pray for: in
peace, in harmony, in a better world.
Prayer, then, has a multiple meaning. It is prayer spoken by man and carried on
the wings of Spirit. It is prayer rising as a force, or prayer soothing like a
lullaby. If you pray for peace, to peace its force is added. If you pray for a
nation, then the prayer is used for that nation. But if you pray adoring God,
thanking God and uniting yourself with God, such a prayer is the purest and the
strongest prayer—so pure that it rises to the highest realms and has the
greatest force; beings of great wisdom, of great light and love, will see that
such prayers are used to fill the moment’s greatest need. If there is need for
peace, it is used for peace, for God also wishes harmony and peace. If such a
prayer should be used for crops to grow, then it is used for the Father’s
abundance for all mankind. If such a prayer should be used to encourage one that
he may go out and move the world, then the prayer is used in this fashion. A
prayer addressed directly to God, adoring Him and giving thanks, has the
destination of the greatest need at the time the prayer is uttered. Therefore,
be careful! Do not put tags on your prayers. You should have at least one prayer
that rises high and can be used by the Masters for the moment’s greatest need.
I, Paracelsus, have spoken.
