Mystic prayer is kind of like having a secret conversation with a very special friend. This friend is really powerful and knows everything about you, even things you might not know about yourself. When you pray mystically, you are trying to connect with this friend and get closer to them.
Sometimes when we talk to this friend, we use words so that we can explain what we need or ask for help. Other times, we might just sit quietly and listen because our friend might have something important to say to us. We can also use our imagination to picture our friend and imagine ourselves being physically close to them, with their powerful love and light surrounding us.
Mystic prayer is different from regular prayer because it's not just about asking for things like a new toy or help with homework. It's about deepening our connection with this special friend and feeling their love, light, and guidance in our lives. And just like a regular friendship, the more we talk and listen to our friend, the stronger our connection gets.
