Morning Prayer as Alignment
- Begin each day with the same prayer to align yourself with a higher will.
- This repeated prayer acts like "a drop that hollows the stone," shaping your actions.
The Divine Spark Within
- Every human being contains a spark of divine light, sometimes covered by life's "mud".
- Prayer helps uncover this spark, revealing our inherent connection to the divine.
