How to Pray the Shaman's Way
By Jose Luis Stevens
When the chips are down, everybody prays-even if they don¹t want to admit it. Shamans, mystics, and saints the world over pray freely, without reservation, and with total abandonment. For shamans prayer is the technique of intentionally gathering helping forces, directing the field of intent, and co-creating the mystery. In this talk you will learn the seven stages of prayer ranging from least productive to most effective. You will discover the unique techniques used by shamans all over the world to make their prayers powerful and extraordinarily potent. We will cover the importance of completing the energetic circuit with Spirit, adopting stances, gestures, and sounds, listening for responses, and completing the action steps for excellent results. You will never pray quite the same way again.
