Spiritual Mind Treatment
Many people do not pray
because they don’t know how. The Science of Mind
offers these 5 steps to cover all the elements
needed for effective prayer when prayed with
sincerity and openness to receive.
This positive prayer
technique is based on Oneness: an understanding
that our minds are facets of the One Mind we
call God or Spirit or simply Life, and that we
have a connection with divine guidance,
provision, power and compassion. We pray to
become clearer receivers for the good already in
store for us, so we talk to ourselves—to our own
minds—to bring about a change in our thinking
that harmonizes with the good we desire.
Step 1: RECOGNITION:
There is One Power in the universe. It is a
Power for Good.
Step 2: UNIFICATION: I Am One with this Power
and with everyone and everything through It. Therefore, I can use It to
claim Good for myself and all of life.
Step 3: REALIZATION: My part in this divine
partnership is choosing. Any desire I have that
does not harm anyone or anything is in harmony
with God/Good, for its manifestation helps the
universe expand.
Step
4: THANKSGIVING: I gratefully open my mind,
my heart, and my life to receive that which I have chosen.
Step
5: RELEASE: I turn this prayer over to the universe to
fulfill, knowing it is already at work for
me.
I have done my choosing, and I am open to
receive. And so it is!
All prayers are prayers
for healing, whether physical or relational, for
the removal of blockage and contradiction
reveals our good. As St. Augustine said,
“Miracles are not contrary to the laws of
nature; they are only contrary to what we know
about the laws of nature.”
