I want to learn prayer. I think it is an art as well as a form of self expression and healing. From what I know of prayer you are supposed to pray to someone or something, but my beliefs are so scattered that I don't know what or who to pray to....how can I learn this?

I thought I would go back to your original post . No two people pray the same way . I'm Christian so I know Christian prayer . Christian prayer is different . We pray to the Father , the Son and the HOly Spirit . The Bible says in the Book of Joel that the Spirit of God falls upon all flesh. Let the Spirit lead you into prayer . I had  put prayers behind me at one time . I started to pray again small prayers I had heard in my childhood . It was a begining .

I can't see how we can tell you who to pray to except to share our beliefs . Then you decide .

Hi,

I spent time in a monastery and learned that everthing is a prayer.   Constant praying.  How you think, act, speak, not speak, move and work.   And there are so many to pray to..... like

angels, the Mother of God, Holy Spirit, God, Jesus,  all the Saints or pray to loved ones who have passed over.  Whatever your beliefs. 

   Praying is not a chore but a gift.    I discovered a simple prayer can be more power filled than 15 decades of a rosary or chaplet of mercy.    A prayer can be a sigh or a smile at someone.    A spontaneous cry to God in prayer tongues  or a silence in your soul.

No right or wrong.    Just prayer.  

God Bless You

and peace always.....

True for me , prayer is often a conversation with the God who loves us .7

The Lord will reach our to you , but you must reach out to him .

" When you reach out to me , I will listen to you . When you seek me , you shall find me ." (Jer 29:12-13 )
