    Prayer for finding God

    Hello forum members

    I was hoping that some of you could put me in your prayers so that:

    1. I may have the strength wisdom, and the help of God to find the Truth about God and act on it.

    2. That he may become a living presence in my,life, so that I may know him.

    Thanks

    Namaste Rudy,

    Of course Rudy, it would be the least that I could do.
    I hope that you will soon be blessed to find your path in this forest; I shall prey that you find illumination to help you see that you are already on your path; that some brush and stones just need to be cleared aside.
    I am starting my evening mantra just now

    Hari Om Rudy!

    Yes, I too will include you in my prayers.

    For now, may Lord Ganesha bless you abundantly and send you the proper guide. I pray that he will give you the courage to make use of your new found knowledge. Jai Sri Ganeshaya Namaha!

    Namaste Rudy,

    Certainly, I will include you in my prayers. I also recommend again for you to do some japa (if you are not already). Simply chanting the name of our dear Lord Ganesha will lead you to His infinite grace. May Maha Ganapati guide you ever deeper into Sanatana Dharma.

    Jai Sri Ganesh

    Namaste Rudy,
    yes on one condition, that you reciprocate the same gesture ( in my favor) for the same identical objectves as well.
    I have the same goals but cant get there as of yet.

    I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers; as I too am looking for these things. I have begun saying these prayers; I think they will help:

    Lord, You are now with me, yet I am unable to see you. Grant me Grace, empower me to behold You. You are my Light. You are my Father. You are my eternal Mother. You are the Breath of my breath. You are everything. From all sides, at all times, You are watching me, seeing me, blessing me. You are in the children, in the creatures great and small. You are everywhere. Will You not reveal Yourself to me?

    Lord, lead me, guide me, purify me, render me peaceful, wise, strong, noble, saintly. As You are in me, express Yourself through me. Let me be a channel for the flow of Your Nature and Qualities. Not my personality, but Your Personality which is full of Perfection, finds Its expression through me. I don't want my will to be done, for my will is imperfect, exposed to wrong impulse, full of limitations. Your Will is wonderful, perfect, omnipotent. Let Your Will be done through me.

    Do you mean chant Om Ganesh, Om Ganesh, Om Ganesh, or something more complicated?

    Namaste Rudy,

    I remember your posts from before, and I am moved to see how much you want to work on your faith. So many people feel it just comes upon them with no rhyme or reason, but even bhakti and faith in God must be nurtured through spiritual practice. Prayers and encouragement from us will help as well, and I most certainly will include you in mine. I agree with Ramakrishna on including Ganesha japa in your endeavours. For countless Hindus everywhere, He is the stepping stone to seeing and understanding God.

    Do you mean chant Om Ganesh, Om Ganesh, Om Ganesh, or something more complicated?
    You can just use His name if that is all that's required. Other mantras you may find useful include: "Om Gam Ganapataye namaha" and "Om Sri Ganeshaya namaha". I pray that Ganesha removes obstacles that might hinder your spiritual growth.

    Om namah Shivaya
    "Watch your thoughts, they become words.
    Watch your words, they become actions.
    Watch your actions, they become habits.
    Watch your habits, they become your character.
    Watch your character, it becomes your destiny."

    ॐ गं गणपतये नमः
    Om Gam Ganapataye namah

    लोकाः समस्ताः सुखिनो भवन्तु ।
