When you realize your part of all there is, not separate from the anything, then who are you going to pray to?.
Spinoza?
That which is yours, but not realized in you yet. Through prayer to that, however symbolically you wish to access it, it transforms the current mind into that higher mind. If all was static as is, and there were no growth of individual, then yes there is nothing more that what you know now.When you realize your part of all there is, not separate from the anything, then who are you going to pray to?.
Praying is just god talking with himself. The point would be to turn the words and desires into a acts of will power where possible. It is then one will.When you realize your part of all there is, not separate from the anything, then who are you going to pray to?.

True, but with a minor technicality. I would also recognize it as higher mind in that our reasoning, cognitive mind is transformed in its type of awareness through exposure to that which transcends mind. If you follow the traditional great chain of being, from matter, to body, to mind, to soul, to spirit, the higher levels affect the lower levels directly below them. The more exposure to and development of spirit, resting in causal emptiness, or Consciousness, the more the development of soul reaching into spirit. The more development of soul, the higher the development of mind reaching into the subtle domain of soul, and so forth. So there is an active relationship and influence, rather than simply separation from mind. You move beyond mind, but mind is transformed along with the development of soul, so to speak. In that sense you are accessing "higher mind" as well.Yes it is when you are in the so called higher mind, not really the mind but in higher Consciousness, this is our true home, this is our connection to all there IS.
