MYSTICS AT PRAYER
Public Workshop
April 12th, 2026
12:30 - 2:30 pm
“The great mystics of all ages understood the real processes of prayer and knew how to
pray. Christians have the beautiful example of the prayer given by Jesus, the Christ, as
a standard; and it is a most beautiful standard. But long before the Christian era, the
Mystics, the Avatars, and those through whom the Light of God shone among men,
knew by divine inspiration how to pray.”
Should prayers consist of a categorical representation of details or a long list of the
things that we feel we want? Most of us go into prayer with the idea that we must advise
the Divine, argue with, stress our viewpoint, and convince, or at least urge the Divine, to
adopt our ideas and decisions and grant what we plead for.
According to the mystical viewpoint, praying to the Divine is based upon the conviction
that the Divine is omnipotent in power, present everywhere, and willing to listen to our
sincere petitions. The process of prayer is a transcendent method of communion with
the Divine.
Join us in discussing the mystical viewpoint on prayer.
With Best wishes for Peace Profound,
Thank you. LLL

The Egyptian word for Truth
Ma’at was the goddess of truth, justice, balance, and most importantly - order. In paintings, she was depicted as a woman who is either sitting or standing with an ostrich feather on her head and, in some cases, she was depicted with wings. According to the creation myths, Ma’at was created when Ra arose from the waters of Nun (chaos). Ma’at was often considered to be the daughter of Ra and was married to Thoth, god of wisdom.
However, Ma’at was more than just a goddess to the ancient Egyptians. She represented the crucial concept of how the universe was maintained. The ancient Egyptians believed the universe had an order to it, and it was Ma’at who kept everything in balance. This helped the ancient Egyptians develop a strong sense of morality and justice. Ma’at was extremely important in achieving the Afterlife. According to Ancient Egyptian mythology, after the death of the body, everyone had to pass through the Hall of Judgment, where a person’s heart was weighed on a scale against Ma’at’s feather of truth. If the deceased person’s heart balanced with Ma’at’s feather, they could continue their journey to the Afterlife. If not, their journey ended. This influenced the daily actions of the ancient Egyptians.
The Confession to Ma'at is taken from the confession contained in the book of the dead spoken in the chamber of Ma'at in Egyptian Temples of Initiation. The symbol of Ma'at was a feather. Cromaat means "The truth shall be," or "So Mote it be.
