On connecting to God
“There is a #story of a peasant girl who was passing through a farm while going to another village. There was a guy offering his prayers on his prayer-rug in the open. The law is that no one should cross the place where anyone is praying. When this girl returned from the village this man was still sitting there. He said, ‘O girl, now what terrible #sin have you committed!’ ‘What did I do?’ asked she. ‘I was offering prayers here, and you passed over this place’. The girl asked, ‘What do you mean by offering prayers?’ ‘Thinking of God’, he replied. The girl said, ‘Yes? Were you thinking of God? I was #thinking of my young man whom I was going to meet, and I did not see you. Then how did you see me while you were thinking of #God?'” – #Inayat_khan
The purpose of praying … is to #connect to God! Do you REALLY #pray ? . #Monir_El_Shazly
