Prayer - Guru Pooja

 Sept 22 eve 1

Osho - Adhyatma Upanishad
The journey of religion has begun with prayerfulness. It has to be so. Prayer means trust and hope. Prayer means our feeling of being one with the whole universe. Prayer means, "How would I be able to manage alone?"
Alone, u could not even manage the world; would this great journey of truth be possible by yourself alone? By urself, u r defeated even in the world. The world is a long story of defeats.
Prayer means the realisation of a person who has been defeated in the world. When, even after trying life after life, he has been defeated in the mundane, what capability can he claims in matters of the scarred and the absolute?
Hence the prayer. Hence the seer has invoked the whole universe to help him.

Soul
True. I started the inner journey cos I was defeated by the world; defeated by my own mind, defeated by my unconsciousness that sabotage my life.
And u have always asked for help from Universe. Many masters has came and share their lights with me.

Osho - Adhyatma Upanishad
The prayer is only a device. The prayer does not change the universe, but u. And the moment u change, u enter into another world. The whole outcome of prayer is u.

How intensely u called will create an equally deep intensity within u. If ur whole being calls out, u will become a totally different person. That is what prayer is for.

Soul
I did guru pooja about three and half years ago. It broke me down. For two weeks I cried non stops when I sang guru pooja. I broke down on Karpura Gauram, no idea why.
After two weeks of relentless crying I asked Vijii what I need to do in order to stop crying. The answer was Shoonya. I immediately said yes and no more cries after that.
So Guru pooja got me deeper into Isha  I joined Shoonya. Out of Shoonya I joined Hata Yoga cos I fell in love with Suria Namaskara.

Father, bought this book back in Dec 2012. This is the best time to read. All the pages jumped out to me.
