So just correcting the last post. No, I am not going to stop praying.
It is rather like having looked at the whole 'Jesus was an Essene', from Aaron Abke, and then not eating a lot of meat, then getting kind of ill.
It is almost precisely the same as that.
I find prayer powerfully positively relevant. Yes, while it is true that I did do a bit more music on the days when I did not pray. Music is not the only activity that needs to be done. I can't even justify the positive power of prayer to the level that I made the opposite case yesterday. But I am sure that praying is the right thing to do.
Today, after I prayed, immediately I was far more loving and positive with people around me. I was more positive and 'faith filled'. Far more positive. In fact a lot of worries just disappeared without a trace. The presence of the prayer energy reminded me to use things like dream interpretation. I assign dream interpretation and the positives I have gotten from it almost entirely to the prayer.
It's like my defences are being tested recently. I compromised on a diet I have learnt is best for me via trial and error. I have thought a lot about alcohol and chocolate recently. Then came a whole 'anti prayer' perspective.
But no, this was stupid. Prayer is fantastic. It also agrees with the paradigm I put in in the last post. If we are a trinity, the two nodes and then a third, unchartable feature. One node is meditation, the other is music. The unchartable feature is the religion. For me Christianity, and prayer being a part of that.
