OUR PRAYERS TO GOD ARE PRAYERS TO CORRECT GOD
Most of us are praying to God quite frequently irrespective of our religious attachments. We all give shape to the shapeless One under our own preferences as induced by others. Most of our prayers are focusing on some needs. These needs can be fresh asking or prayer to change what is given. We all however believe that wisdom, intelligence and knowledge are originated from God and none hold these more than Him. We also believe that God do not commit any error and therefore need no correction. All the actions of the Supreme One have absolute perfection.
We also believe that God is the Creator of everything in the universe. Every human on earth is created by Him. He is our Father and we are His children. There is no bounds for His love. With total love for us He is always taking care of us. He has nothing bad against us to trouble.
Let us now look at our prayers. We abridge our prayers to two categories, those are prayers to the Almighty One to correct Himself and to do what we want and not what He desire. Every time we ask Him to correct Himself as asked by us. All our prayers silently tell the Almighty One; I have better knowledge than you. If the Omnipresent One do not concede our prayers we simply conclude that we have not worshipped properly and so we could not appease Him. We must know that everything in this universe including each one of us are His and He may be pleased to shower us more than what we pray for. However when we go through the great teachings from the great books, it is revealed that it is man to answer his own prayers. When we pray for lavish food for all in our family for long, we may find a hungry man at our doorstep. If we feed him as lavishly as we can instead of turn him away, the Supreme One feed all of us quite lavishly. And that is the real prayer.
