Pray. It elevates the mind. It fills the mind with purity. It keeps the mind in tune with God. Prayer can reach a realm where reason dare not enter. Prayer can move mountains. It can work miracles. It frees the devotee from the fear of death, brings him nearer to God and makes him feel the divine presence everywhere.

It was the prayer of Meera that converted the bed of nails into a bed of roses. If the prayer is sincere, it will at once melt the heart of the Lord. Sri Krishna had to run bare-footed from Dwaraka on hearing the heart-felt prayer of Draupadi. Sri Vishnu apologised before Prahlada for coming a little late when the latter prayed. How merciful and loving is the Lord! Say even once from the bottom of your heart: "O Lord, I am thine. Thy will be done. Have mercy on me. I am Thy servant and devotee. Forgive. Guide. Protect. Enlighten. Trahi. Prachodayat." The prayer is at once heard and responded to. Do this in the daily battle of life and realise yourself the high efficacy of prayer. You must have strong conviction in the existence of God. God helps even a demon when he prays. Pray to God for purity, devotion, light and knowledge. The power of prayer is indescribable. Its glory is ineffable. Only sincere devotees realise its usefulness and splendour. It should be done with reverence, faith and non-expectation of fruits. Pray in any way for the lord hears even the footfall of an ant! All Glories to Lord Narasimhadev, the lord of Prahlad! Vishnu Vishnu Vishnu ~ Jai Shri HariHar ~ Jai Shri ShankarNarayana
