15. Как святые слышат наши молитвы. Приложение о молитве

I am very glad that you liked my speech about that element. Accept it, imprint it firmly in your head and always keep it in mind. You will see how she will help you in everything. How much she explains things and how much consolation she brings! You have probably heard the question of how the saints hear our prayers, or perhaps you yourself have asked it yourself. In response to it, they interpret and interpret, but the question remains a question. In my opinion, given the assumption of that element, it turns out: how can the saints not hear our prayers? Do you know how an electric telegraph works? In St. Petersburg, for example, they set up a well-known apparatus - at the same moment that action in St. Petersburg is reflected in Moscow in a similar apparatus and in the same meaning in which the movement takes place there. Why does this happen? Because the devices are homogeneous, and the wire connecting them is adjusted to them. So, the action of such a telegraph is our prayer. We and the saints are like two homogeneous apparatuses; The environment in which the saints and in which our souls are surrounded is a wire. When true prayer—heartfelt—moves in the soul, then it flows through that element, influencing it, like a ray of light, flying to the saints and telling them what we want and what we are praying for. There is no gap between our prayer and hearing - it is only necessary that the prayer comes from the heart. We have it as a telegraph projectile for the sky. The same prayers, which come not from the heart, but from the head and only from the tongue, do not produce a ray ascending to heaven and are not heard there. Yes, this is not prayer, but only prayer techniques. Perhaps, without noticing it, you wrote an experienced certificate in what was said. You write that you prayed earnestly - and immediately calmed down, having received the assurance within that you would be taken away from what was tormenting you; and then it all worked out. So it turns out that my comparison of heartfelt prayer with a telegraph, carried invisibly to the sky through that element, is correct. A blow, or a ray, went from your heart to the sky, along the same line, or with the same ray, from the sky came to your heart in response what you needed. This is what always happens with all prayers that come from the heart. The fulfillment of such a prayer does not always follow immediately, but its hearing occurs immediately. I couldn't be happier that this happened to you. Grant, Lord, that this happens to you more often. Remember how you prayed here, and always try to pray in such a way that the prayer comes from the heart, and not just pronounced with the tongue and thought in the mind. If you arrange yourself this way, then you will have a business solution to the question of how to live in the spirit. For such prayer is the life of the spirit. Here the spirit abides in God and unites with him, and this is the whole power of his life. Know that only then does it mean that the spirit lives when it prays as you prayed. When there is no such prayer, it means that he has frozen, if not completely drowned out. I will not hide from you that even though you prayed like this, you will hardly be able to pray like this always. This is the kind of prayer God gives or the Guardian Angel initiates. And she comes and goes. It does not follow from this, however, that we are allowed to abandon the work of prayer. It comes when someone works in prayer, but whoever does not work will not come to him. And we see that the holy fathers worked a lot in prayer and through these labors kindled the spirit of prayer within themselves. How they reached this point, they left us an image of it in their writings. Everything they have said on this subject constitutes the science of prayer, which is the science of sciences. When the time comes, you and I will go through this science, but now I touched on it only in passing: by the way, I had to. And I’ll add one more thing: there is nothing more important than prayer. Consequently, one must work on it more diligently and more than anything else. Grant you, Lord, zeal for such work. Your humble thoughts and feelings about yourself are angelic feelings. How perfect and how bright the Angels are! And they are all humble, more humble than all people. A humble soul is always bright. The darkening of the soul begins when it begins to think a lot about itself, for this is the work of dark forces. Grant you, Lord, never to lose such feelings, so that you can always be in the light. So again we got away from our question. Just be patient. You might be interested in:
