Every religion has a god who worships and asks him wishes to achieve it

Now please kindly take part in expressing the way of prayer and how you see it as convincing to you

As an example, Christianity believes that Jesus crucified himself for redemption of sins (Jesus now the deceased because he sacrificed himself).
I mean in the Christian prayer do they turn to Jesus or the old God

In Hinduism and avatar there are personalities sanctified by the Hindus have ended their lives. Do they also ask these ended their lives the wishes and how to believe in their response

In Buddhism we know that Buddha died because he avoided eating as I read and his life ended, so how do they ask for their wishes or help

And other religions


I apologize, I don't mean to offend anyone

About me as a Muslim
Seek asylum and need and ask for wishes from the first source of existence
He is God who is the first with no beginning and no birth and the last with no end and no inheritance
He is the source of existence and is the one who asks him and is the creator of all creatures on the planet and others

So how are you
thank you

Unfortunately, you have many mistakes about the different gods and buddhas you speak about in this thread. Buddha Sakyamuni did not die because not eating, Sakyamuni died at the age of 84 after eating meat that was not well prepared, And second of all Buddhists do not worship or see Buddha as a God. A Buddhist has only the teaching after the buddha to rely on to become enlightened. But it is totally up to each one of the Buddhists if they can realize enlightenment out for their own cultivation. The teaching is only a guideline on how to do it, But Buddha Sakyamuni does not give enlightenment to a Buddhist.

I will let others speak about the other errors in you OP since there are many here who know more about Christianity an Hindu teaching then i do my self

The "model prayer" only asks forgiveness and daily bread. The rest of it, before, during, and after that is praising god, glorifying god, and "thy will be done."
In Hinduism and avatar there are personalities sanctified by the Hindus have ended their lives. Do they also ask these ended their lives the wishes and how to believe in their response
Some avatars, not all. You have to keepbin mind Hindu has a handful of gods you hear about, and many, many more youve never heard of, and there are numerous sects that worship this deity or that, with some sects being closer to atheism.
In Buddhism we know that Buddha died because he avoided eating as I read and his life ended, so how do they ask for their wishes or help
Buddha died of food poisoning. And Buddhists really arent ones for making wishes.

...As an example, Christianity believes that Jesus crucified himself for redemption of sins (Jesus now the deceased because he sacrificed himself).
I mean in the Christian prayer do they turn to Jesus or the old God...

There are many kinds of Christians. Originally it meant a disciple of Jesus. And person who is truly a disciple of Jesus, is loyal to Jesus.

Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples. You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
John 8:31-32

And Jesus taught about praying this:

When you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Most assuredly, I tell you, they have received their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. In praying, don't use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. Therefore don't be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him. Pray like this: 'Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.'
Matt. 6:5-13

Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they don't sow, they don't reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds! Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height? If then you aren't able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest? Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith? Don't seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious. For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things. But seek God's Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.
Luke 12:22-31

And about the sacrifice. Jesus used his life for our benefit. It can b compared to a soldier that sacrifices his life in war so that his country could be free. But, forgiveness was possible even before the death of Jesus as shown in this:

The scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, "Who is this that speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?" But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered them, "Why are you reasoning so in your hearts? Which is easier to say, 'Your sins are forgiven you;' or to say, 'Arise and walk?' But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" (he said to the paralyzed man), "I tell you, arise, and take up your cot, and go to your house." Immediately he rose up before them, and took up that which he was laying on, and departed to his house, glorifying God.
Luke 5:21-25

In Christianity, Jesus isn't dead. He resurrected after 3 days in the tomb and then later ascended to Heaven. He is also God, so praying to Jesus is praying to God.

I'm not totally sure, but it seems like they pray to the old god. In christianity, I think it might be a sin to ask for a specific wish through prayer, since you're supposed to use 'the lord's prayer.' I don't know if all of them really do that though.

Thank you for answering my brother
But I see many Buddhists go to temples and ask for their wishes in front of the Buddha
is this not a kind of worship ?
In general, I apologize if I am wrong in understanding Buddhism
With sincere respect and appreciation
I love you because you have compassionately shared with me :hugehug:

Which is makimg a wish how?

Thanks for the reply and information
This kindness of you

If there are many gods
Imagine asking God to give me money. Will all the gods agree and take the same opinion as the previous gods?
I mean, do all the gods agree always together?

I ask God for forgiveness and bread well
Who is the true goddess who gives me forgiveness
How many gods should I ask forgiveness?

In Islam God is one without a Trinity
There is one creator and has the absolute decision
He is the one who created us and we have to worship him and thank him and he is worthy of thanks

Imagine I borrowed money from a bank and wanted to pay off debts
Do I take back the money to the bank manager of bank or to the employees
Or the bank itself?
I must pay the money to the bank as well as thanksgiving and worship be to God only because he gave you the funding

thanks
god bles you

Buddha Sakyamuni said that we should not worship him as a God or someone higher. Because even he is the teacher, it is our own effort that can lead us to enlightenment, Sakyamuni only gave us his wisdom about how to realize enlightenment :) If we worship him we gain nothing at all.

Sorry, if it sounded that I am claiming Jesus is the God. Jesus himself says there is only one true God that is greater than him. I think we should believe him in that.

This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
John 17:3

…the Father is greater than I.
John 14:28

Thank you, and may the God be merciful and bless also you. :)

In every situation we ask ''what would Jesus do?'' and the world would have not a single problem. but people choose the devil and they want wishes granted.

I used to make wishes when seeing a falling star. But then I learned they were just space rocks burning up in the upper atmosphere.

And then by the age of 8, I realised that there is no such thing as "wish granting" and that there are no genies in old lamps.

For me prayer can be a simple conversation, complaining and whining, thanking God. I rarely ask for anything material, though I ask for protection, health and well-being for others. I ask for strength and wisdom, to see him everywhere, in everything and everyone. I often fail because it's hard work. Prayer can be songs about God; we call them bhajans, from a word meaning worship. I recite/chant verses that someone has written... ready-made prayers, if you will.
