praying God

Hi vathsala! I also pray to God, however, in my own manner. The system which you follow is a good one because my better half follows the same system and she is very particular about it. Hopefully, she prays not only for the well being of herself but for entire family. I do agree with you that praying and meditation help us calm ourselves.

that is a very nice habit vathsala. I go to temples often, but don't pray at hoem daily, regularly like you. Wish I had this habit.

Hi vathsala30,Yes i do,i used to pray every day. Ever since,during my child hood days,my family were so devoted in praying to God,twice a day,every morning and before bed time.Now,that i have my own family we used to pray together.I have also my devotional prayer scheduled every day.For me, my day is not complete with out prayers.It makes me feel at peace and confident that God is always by my side.Thanks,God Bless!

Hello Aunty. Yes its a very good habit usually i will only do pooja in the mornings after i take bath. We have a big seperate pooja room. I remove the old flowers which i offered them the previous day, mop the room light the lamp and offer him the fresh flowers and for naivedyam i keep very day milk in the morning. and light the insence stick and camphor and dhoop at the last. Thanks for your topic. Have a great day.

Hi, I too have that habbit. the first thing i do after bath is praying. I dont know the time i spend. It may be little. But i say gayathri manthram 5 times, slogas for guru bhagavan,vinayagar each 21 times. And then pray for all my family members, friends,their families and their friends too. I request God to keep me happy and let me to make others happy.

i pray everyday but only like talking to god in everything i do...so it is not a real time consuming one and do remember him every single min of my life...

My praying starts from the time I get up from the bed. I pray Shirdi Baba, Sathya Sai Baba, Kubera and Adithya i.e. Sun God for one or two minutes, for the day to pass in a good way for all my family members. Then while taking bath I chant few stotrams like Sani, Navagrahas, Vinayaka, Anjaneya, Rama, Krishna, Light, Raghavendera Swamy etc. Though the list is big, the stotras are small. So I will finish during my bath. Pooja is done by my husband. So I do not do in the morning. In the evening again few stotras in front of God I will chant while lighting the lamp. Before going to bed I write Sri Rama Jayam and read Sai Satcharitra one or two paragraphs. Do namaskaram and go to bed. This is my daily routine.

Hi vathsala,I have been this habit since childhood and at home it is very particular to do it everyday. It is the duty of the kids to sit and pray in loud voice at the time of dusk. All home have particular lamp for the prayers, which is considered as the prosperity of the house. Here in morning time it is not possible to light up the particular lamp and space is also less and we don’t have particular room for pooja but we have idols and photos of God. But I feel odd to light up and pray because my son is getting up late. I think you got the point. But evening I do the same on possible days. I do pray many times in a day in mind.

Hello Friends, I am happy to hear from you, because in the world of today there are only a few people who spend few mins in rememberance of GOD. Yes of course i do spend 10-15 mins daily to pray infront of GOD. Really whenever i pray i get my mind in the position of relaxation. I am very happy to share this with you.

hi vathsala, it is a good habit,we have to pray god ,who have given all things to us to live and enjoy the life,daily i will put some flowers before good pictures and then i will read some slokas,that is enough,previously i am spending before god 30 minutes,not it was decreased to 5 to 10 minutes only,have a nice day

I have to say, I pray to God ever so often without any specific place or time. I would pray if I feel negatively on a specific matter or when I am in the middle of traffic. I see to it that I pray such as when I talk to my friends. The relationship with God is important to me and thus praying just shows Him that I remember him in everything I do and it is not just for show.

hi aunty, yeah, i pray for god regularly, but now a days, i am not such particular about to pray.. i am simply wasting my time here and there. i have to pray sincerly.. aunty.. i need the god blessings and elders like you.. thankyou very much, have a nice day.

I don't practice any particular religion but I am a very spiritual person and believe there are things beyond what we can see and feel physically. I usually pray when myself or someone else is in crisis and needs help. It makes me feel more comfortable and gives me strength. Whether this is a false sense of things or not I don't care. It helps me. Who knows, someone could be listening, whatever form that might be.

I was a chinese boy.I don't know who was my god.I wanna have a God,you know. People in China don't have their God. They're working and working all the time.They have no time to think about it.But,I think that people should have their belives.
