Prayer for Beginners
An uplifting guide to powerful prayer The simple act of prayer can give you courage and strength in challenging times, provide answers to life's questions, help you foster a personal connection to a higher power, and fill your heart with profound comfort and peace. But how many of us have been taught how to pray? The art of effective prayer is fully explored in this one-of-a-kind guidebook by award-winning author Richard Webster. Whether you're addressing God, the universe, or your Higher Self, this book on prayer for beginners will help you connect with the divine. Webster offers easy techniques for achieving a state of mind conducive to a meaningful spiritual exchange for complete health and wellness. You'll also discover how prayer is linked to magic, as well as how to strengthen prayers with chakra energy, create a sacred space, pray with a mandala, and communicate with angels.

Tibetan Mandalas
Every one of these Tibetan mandalas is rich in spiritual meaning, and the accompanying quotations and sayings will deepen your knowledge of this very special culture. Contemplate the Wheel of Becoming, a symbol of rebirth usually found in monasteries, or a transcendent Adibuddha Vajrasattva, a representation of penetrating absoluteness and the embodiment of the limitless. Other mandalas include the Eight Symbols of Happiness, the four-armed Manjushri (for wisdom), Sacrificial Offerings, and the national flag of Tibet. Each consists of a periphery and a center, which stand for the beginning and end of all being, and as meditators color them in, they will foster a deeper understanding of the universe and the inner landscape of the human soul.

Although in India religion may have become very much a temple cult, its embeddedness in the natural world enhances today's 'green' interpretation of religious traditions. That in environmental matters such religious inspiration may be both successful and highly ambivalent at the same time is the thought-provoking position taken in the final chapters.
