Prayer is defined as an earnest
hope or wish.
Based on our understanding of the science of hope and wish, we
know that we cannot hope for something that we have not thought of, similarly, we cannot
wish for that that we have not thought of.
It is also clear that we
constantly think of what we hope or wished for in the practice that we
call prayer.
A prayer can then be defined as a
movement of thought within the mind of the one praying. A prayer is not spontaneous
but is specific, prayed along a definite line of meditation and focused on a
specific object of thought. The activity of prayer occurs in the conscious mind
which impresses the content of our prayer to the subjective mind.
