Prayer - means to attain the regions of pure light

05/10/2005

All creation, nature as well as man, obeys the principle of hierarchical order. One indication of this order is that the closer we get to the summit, the purer and subtler matter becomes. In order to obtain the particles of this subtle matter, we therefore must strive to elevate ourselves. It is important to understand that the Lord, who has given us the means to control the dense regions of matter, has also given us the means to attain these subtle regions. Prayer is one of these means. By means of prayer we can reach the world of pure light where the Lord has placed the greatest treasures. And we have the right to draw on all these treasures. Once we are able to rise to the heights, everything is at our disposal, and we are entitled to help ourselves.
