Prayer and Belief; the effect on the mind’s manifesting power
The brain functions on different operating levels depending on what it’s doing. When the brain is excited by focused awareness of the present moment, it transitions into theta function, called a flow state. Merging action and awareness, we enter a flow state commonly experienced in artistic endeavors, sports, work, or even meditation and prayer.
The theta brain state is in harmonious frequency with the soul, charging the connection between the spirit and the oneness of the universe. When we align with the universal frequencies, we can begin manifesting desires and dreams.
Manifesting our dreams and desires is rooted in the power of words, as each utterance is a statement of belief, or prayer. In history, prayer has been dictated by religious edicts and books but it is important to realize the power of prayer and each word we think, especially what we say.
When we are not aligned with our true Self and operate at base levels, our words are less powerful. To make our words more powerful, it is important to speak in an active voice that is present, clear and invokes feelings of love.
For prayer, or statements of belief, it is unnecessary to address a G-d but we must invoke the power of feelings and have gratitude for Self and the world around you. This gives us access to the higher realms of imagination, where belief lives.
Belief and prayer and similar higher states of consciousness are made stronger when in conjunction with others. Throughout history, we see examples of this going very badly through stereotypes and fervor; examples like the Salem witch trials call to mind an escalation of belief to consensus reality. Yet on the flip side, we see miracles happen when minds collaborate and manifest shifting realities.
To pray effectively, we don’t need to be on our knees to pray, or beside our bed looking at a bright star. The power of prayer is accessed when we are focused and emoting intensely. Holding dear memories, singing or dancing to invoke flow state, creates a passionate bond between heart and head, allowing our thoughts and words to vibrate at an intense cellular level to manifest realities.
