Prayer

Mr. Gurdjieff said man does not
know how to pray. Sportsmen in
our age pray for victory, thank "god"
if they win their game, or race.
Children are taught to pray for a bike,
but sometimes a pure thought may
help someone, perhaps even a prayer
may project thousands of miles.
Mr. Gurdjieff worked on healing a pupil's
mother in the USA, telepathically, while
he was all the time in France.
He said real prayer, is with all three
of our centers, emotionally, intellectually,
and physically. This is science and art
combined. Working with the complex
human mechanism to achieve results.
Refining one's energy fields, fasting,
chastity, may all have been
part of this process.
And truly, may only occur in it's
highest form, in a being with a developed
astral body.
