We invented marriage. couples invented marriage. we also invented divorce,mind you. and we invented infidelity,too, as well as romantic misery. in fact we invented the whole sloppy mess of love and intimacy and aversion and euphoria and failure. but most importantly of all, most subversively of all, most stubbornly of all, we invented privacy.

Say the prayer first thing in the morning when you open your eyes; then say it again before you go to sleep. dream the prayer. feel the prayer with your emotional body. be the prayer; align your faith and intent with the prayer until your whole life is based on this prayer.

In 1492, the natives discovered they were indians, discovered they lived in america, discovered they were naked, discovered that the sin existed, discovered they owed allegiance to a king and kingdom from another world and a god from another sky, and that this god had invented the guilty and the dress, and had sent to be burnt alive who worships the sun the moon the earth and the rain that wets it.

When i started out on my pilgrimage, i was using walking for two purposes at that time. one was to contact people, and i still use it for that purpose today. but the other was as a prayer discipline. to keep me concentrated on my prayer for peace. and after a few years i discovered something. i discovered that i no longer needed the prayer discipline. i pray without ceasing now. my personal prayer is: make me an instrument through which only truth can speak.

Satan cannot deny but that great wonders have been wrought by prayer. as the spirit of prayer goes up, so his kingdom goes down. satan's strategems against prayer are three. first, if he can, he will keep thee from prayer. if that be not feasible, secondly, he will strive to interrupt thee in prayer. and, thirdly, if that plot takes not, he will labour to hinder the success of thy prayer.

My greatest weapon is mute prayer.

In the beginning i undertook my walking not only to contact people, i undertook it as a prayer discipline to keep me concentrated on my prayer for peace... after the first few years the prayer discipline was completely unnecessary, because i had learned to pray without ceasing. i made the contact so thoroughly that into my prayer consciousness i put any condition or person in the world i am concerned about and the rest takes place automatically.
