How should I pray?

"Prayer is not an act; it is a natural overflow of love and awe that arises when you are fully present to the beauty of existence."
According to Osho, prayer cannot be done; it happens when the heart naturally swells with love and awe. Abandon imitation, formality, and sectarianism; be simple, available, and unjudging. Let living existence—trees, sky, rivers, your child or beloved—inspire you to bow wherever the wave arises. In the silent presence of the prayerful, listen like to music; then something within bows and dissolves—this is prayer.
Don’t try to perform prayer—relax, feel love for life, and let a natural thank-you rise anywhere, anytime.
