no.
those that profess themselves as priesthood are no more equipped than we are to access the divine.
I have personal experience of my Gods, as I am able, and as I am entitled.
the Divine is a part of all of us. we just each need to learn to listen to that thread of pure divine energy at our core.
and any of us are capable of doing so.

I don't think you do need a mediator. I think that G-d Knows what is in your heart without you even saying it.

There is not mediator that comes between man and G'd. 36 times in the Bible it says that there is G'd and only G'd. You do not pray through anyone or anything else to get to G'd you just talk to G'd. He will hear you and decide to answer or not.
We are His children He is our Father. You do not go to someone else to talk to your father here on earth do you? No you talk to him yourself. Well, it is the same with G'd the Father.
All of the other intermediaries are just false gods. The religions that believe in them are polytheistic or pagan.

If Jesus taught us nothing else it was that we can call God Abba.

Jesus is the mediator to God.He is the only way to be able our prayers will be granted.Anyone in this world cannot claim as mediator but only JesusChrist our Savior.

I grew up going to an independent Christian church where I was taught that you pray, to God in Jesus' name. I believe the Bible teaches that Jesus mediates between us and God and that the Holy Spirit speaks for us when we don't know how to say what we're trying to say. I don't believe it's necessary to have a priest or saint pray in my place, but I don't think there is anything wrong with having them pray for me.

I pray to God through Jesus Christ and when I can't find the words I want to say, the Holy Spirit speaks for me.

i already have a mediator, we believers in the church of christ have a major mediator. A mediator between man and God no other than the Christ Jesus..It is very clear in the holy scriptures that Jesus the son of God is the mediator between and people.

what sort of mediator would a son be for us to his father? sounds pretty good to me
Jesus tells us we have but one mediator between and God! HIM

different religion has diferent view regarding this andanding? for the Jews they claim that they are the God choosen people it is only them who will be save, for the cristian accept Jesus christ as your personal savior for the muslim there is only one God,LaILAHA IL ALLAH, MOHAMAD RASUL ALLAH,AND MOHAMAD IS HIS PROPHET,so the choices is yours to choose whih is correct.as to my own understanding and own opinion we dont need a arbitor or mediator for each man will hold responsible for what he did in his past life whether it is good or bad
