On God and Prayer

About this book

Prayer changes its meaning when the divine is sought within life rather than imagined only as an external ruler. This Point Loma manual follows that question through contrasting ideas of a personal God, pantheism and a supreme reality beyond familiar descriptions.

Prayer becomes inward effort and the cultivation of moral powers. Criticism of conventional theology serves an argument for spiritual independence, giving a familiar religious practice a different purpose within the author’s Theosophical account of human potential.
