Secrets of the Lost Mode of Prayer: The Hidden Power of Beauty, Blessing, Wisdom, and Hurt

Gregg Braden’s wisdom and insight never disappoint. He’s a gift to the world and this is just another of his many gifts. A wonderfully written book by an incredibly wise person. Highly recommend.

I loved this book because it not only looks at the same ideas from different perspectives, cultures, and belief systems, but because it also gives you very easy and clear steps to apply them. I feel as if I've grown in the time it took me to read this. That somehow, I'm wiser, more developed spiritually, and also a thousand times lighter!I trust this author, have read another book of his, and have watched many of his videos. Not only does he know what he's talking about (after all of his intensive research) but also, he just seems so authentically passionate about it. He seems like he would be the nicest guy to sit down and have a conversation about.Super glad I picked this one up!

I've known about this form of prayer for years, but I really didn't understand how the process worked. Along with the way to create and feel a prayer, the heart of the book are the stories to help us understand a very effective and ancient practice. I'm sure I'll read this book again.

As I work on affirming, manifesting and praying, the topic of forgiveness often surfaces as a prerequisite for spiritual growth (in many books). Honestly, forgiveness is a touchy subject for me and I tend to dismiss self-help literatures that casually encourage readers to practice unconditional forgiveness - regardless of how traumatic, damaging or hurtful the occurrence may have been. It's easy to tell someone to "let go," "release with love," and "move on." Those phrases mean nothing to me, especially coming from mere quotations in a book.This book promotes the practice of blessing - not synonymous to forgiving but - as an act of acknowledgment that the pain-bringing past has indeed occurred. By accepting it happened, the author says one can ascend past the rightness and wrongness of the occurrence and create a space of no judgement so new feelings and thoughts can enter. (don't worry, the author makes it much simpler).It's similar to the meditative notion of attaining pure awareness in between breaths - between inhaling and exhaling is a gap where you're neither breathing in or out, where your breathing has stopped. In this moment, your mind is dead, it has stopped, you are not thinking. The negation of thoughts allow you to immerse in complete awareness, void of mind-thinking. (for more, read Osho books)These states of no-mind and no-judgement is where spiritual transformations, emotional healings (forgiveness) and manifestations seem most possible and many reach these states through prayer and meditation.Reading this book, I felt the practice of blessing as a simple active meditation to consciously shift your awareness from the past hurt to a mindset of no-judgement, creating space inside of you to begin forgiveness and healing.The author's writing style is uncomplicated and easy to read. It's unnecessary to agree with his interpretations of religious evidence behind his beliefs, to appreciate this book.

As always very conversational and very intelligent, quantum physics and spirituality in the same conversation.Prayer, a personal subject that we all do and understand in our own way. Mr.Braden brings to us the ancient traditions and interpretations of prayer.

It took me about a week to sip the pages of this book and I tried the advice on the pages. It's helped my mental health and I've already seen some doors open. Whether the doors would have opened without my reading this book is of a small matter because I wouldn't have been in the grateful mind to embrace the opportunities without it. Thanks!

I was so impressed with the knowledge this book has to offer the human race.I found this book to be so wonderfully inspiring and teaching us how truly simple prayer can be thus, making our God/Universe so happy when we give thanks.

I really like Gregg Braden. He explains everything so concisely and clearly. I've watched him on the Gaia channel and am always open to hear and listen to what he has to share. This book opened my eyes to a new level of understanding about prayer and how it works.

Thank You Gregg for writing this book. Love it.

I’ve been following Gregg Braden for a while but this was the first of his books that I read. It’s truly special… Written so well, simply and with a level of authenticity that’s rare to experience these days. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to bring healing into their lives.

Beaucoup de gens prient sans même connaître le mode d'emploi de la prière. Cet ouvrage révèle le mode d'emploi de la prière, d'un point de vue scientifique, au-delà des divisions religieuses. Il conseille aussi à chacun d'écrire ses propres prières.

This is a must read!
