        Reaching one’s psychic being through prayer



        Denis Capdeville



        Abstract
        Prayer can sometimes be a complex exercise, because a lot of external and internal
        parameters may pollute it during its practice. This article is not aiming to define what a
        prayer is or not, since prayer is a very intimate experience one has with the Divine. This
        article aims at bringing useful details to integrate a better practice,which may provide in
        return evidence that the prayer has been well handled.With a steady practice, one may
        gain self-confidence and joy, while harvesting concrete outcomes, both with regards to
        specific requests and to establish a compelling connection with the Divine.

                                                 before and an after each step of progress. Once
                                                 we reach a particular state, there is no way back.
                                                 If we go deeper within our belief-system, our
                                                 view of human nature becomes wider and we
                                                 need to untie those knots which keep us  bound
