Secrets of the Lost Mode of Prayer

This is a must read!

excellent book

Trust me this book has nothing extraordinary to learn or improve something in life. Moreover nothing extraordinary explained.

The main theme is excellent, could be without additional anecdotes. People do not remember how to identify their own feelings.probably working more on that would be useful.

Mancano indicazioni e suggerimenti su come imparare, quali pratiche adottare, come fare in modo di "sentire" e qdi diventare un tutt'uno con preghiera in modo che si possano così realizzare.La semplice descrizione di come si dovrebbe intendere la preghiera e del beneficio che ne consegue se praticata in quel modo Per qualcuno potrebbe essere qualcosa di nuovo di fatto non viene suggerita alcuna modalità su come imparare pertanto ho trovato il libro poco utile se non irritante

Really interesting for all people who use to pray and meditate. The old mode of praying is powerful and healing. It works concentrating the mind or feeling what we want to be or get for us and for others. If we are not able to feel happy, antecipating what we believe is the most important thing for us or other living being, we are not able to experience it. To pray is to put ourselves in the heaven, If we do not give any time to feel these condition, it does not work to pray for any kind of divinity to give us things we can not apreciate.

I like this book. As another reviewer says, it even feels good to hold it. The contents of the book are even better. I was intrigued by his main tenets, about blessing and beauty, I really think he is on to something. I loved the way he interwove personal accounts and experiential and academically rigourous research. He describes how we can heal and be healed, he affirms our own experiences and offers us a useful context to place them in. He traces these experiences through ancient mystical lit. I have a post-grad degree in Mysticism & Rel. Exp. but I was struck that we never focused on prayer as Gregg has done in this book. It is a valuable invitation to explore this area and certainly left me better informed, more aware, yet thirsting for more awareness of the intensly private, yet socially imperative power of the human prayer state. I was pleased he describes how the Mysticisim was edited from the Bible. By the end I would have prefered his book to be twice the length as it was finished, oh too soon. In all, I was glad to have made Gregg Braden's aquaintance, and will search out his other titles.

Excellent book. My copy is well worn, heavily highlighted, and cherished. Made me think about prayer in a whole new way ... because we've as a society lost the truths and approach to prayer that this book shares. Small book, but packed with very helpful insights!
