    In a world that can feel noisy and uncertain, I’ve learned to value the quiet strength of prayer. Gurumayi’s words stay with me: “Prayer is comforting.” They’re not just poetic; they’re practical. Prayer helps me return to myself when life feels overwhelming or when I’m trying to protect the people I love.


    For me, prayer is about being present—with myself, with my family, and with the world. Prayer steadies me. It shifts my energy from reaction to reflection, from tension to trust.


    Every time I pray for my loved ones, for those who suffer, for Nature, even for those I don’t understand, I feel I’m planting something real: comfort, connection, and calm. It’s my quiet way of resisting the chaos—a daily act of inner clarity.


    For me, peace begins in the stillness of my own heart, one silent intention at a time.

    I love Gurumayi’s words, “Prayer is comforting.” In fact, I find her entire teaching about prayer to be extremely soothing to my heart. How grateful I am for the practice of prayer, which has the ability to take me deep into my heart! And I feel that by praying—for people I love, for the world, for animals, and for plants—I am helping to spread comfort throughout this planet.

    I am deeply grateful for the profound experience I had while viewing Gurumayi’s picture and reading the accompanying teaching.


    The image and the text put side by side created a powerful moment of contemplation and insight for me. Gazing at Gurumayi’s picture, I experienced a scintillating blue light emanating from her eyes. It filled me with inner peace, and I felt Gurumayi’s grace and blessings.


    This moment of tranquility and heightened awareness is a blessing I cherish.

    Contemplating these teachings from Gurumayi is an amazing gift, which opens my subtle attention amidst my daily schedule and household routines.
     
    It’s so splendid to be touched in my heart in this way, feeling the radiance of the Heart shimmer in me.

    Each time I visit this exquisite page and click on one of the inspiring photos of Gurumayi, I have the very experience that she describes in this quote.
     
    I experience the shakti enlivened within my body, which reminds me of Shri Guru who bestowed the gift of shaktipat-disksha on me. In those moments, I know that Gurumayi is with me. It is tangible.
     
    I am so grateful for Gurumayi’s presence in my life.

    Today, I woke up having a special dream. I dreamed that I was entering a hall full of people in deep meditation. I slowly walked to the front of the hall and to Gurumayi, who was also in meditation. The dream inspired me to visit the Siddha Yoga path website, where I found this webpage, Gurumayi’s Darshan and Wisdom. I felt so close to Gurumayi.
