Hi Dharma,
>It may be that you pray only when you're unhappy and need something
No I never pray. There is no need to. I am in this world for a purpose & I
know what it is. I want nothing. I accept what I get. Do I have any
choice !!!
>but I think there are millions of people for whom that is not so. Many
>also give
>thanks; give praise; ask a blessing... on food, for instance; ask healing
>or other good >things for other people; or simply talk to God/dess. None

Prayer is a prayer. There is nothing like praying for a good cause or not a
good cause or for a selfish end or otherwise. The idea I am conveying is
that Prayer is also an experience. The Truth/God is beyond experience. You
can't reach/realise Truth/God
by prayer. What you perceive through your five senses is not true.
Truth/God is revealed with the destruction of the mind.
Trust in your self and work towards Truth/God. Others will do the same.
Then why you need to pray for others !!!. Go from known to unknown-You have
yourself to start with.
With love,
Gopal
