Is it necessary to pray? Is the supreme power such a power that it would act only if we pray to it? Wouldn't the supreme power know our entire circumstances and wouldn't it guide us accordingly? If it is a question of ego and prayers are about destroying our ego, it is unlikely. We are more likely to be cured of our ego when the slings and arrows of misfortune are fired at us by our circumstances. No, I do not think prayers are necessary unless those prayers are our poetic celebration of the divine. What is required is the understanding that all our problems are due to our restless mind and the only solution is to make our mind restful.
