Have you ever felt that the way we’re taught to pray is all wrong? In this profound lecture, we explore why the traditional idea of “talking to God” as a distant cosmic emperor is a fundamental misunderstanding. Learn why true prayer is not about speaking, but about listening—not to someone else, but to the universe that you already are.
This lecture dismantles the idea of separation, teaching that “you are it”—a way the universe is experiencing itself. It redefines prayer not as a request, but as an act of listening and becoming quiet enough to hear the deeper wisdom that emerges when our anxious, controlling ego gets out of the way. Discover how to stop coming to prayer with a list of demands and instead come “empty” and open, flowing with life like a river.
This is a complete guide to redefining your relationship with the divine. It’s about letting go of control, dissolving the separation between “you” and “God,” and finally understanding that prayer is not an act you do, but a state of presence you are.
