Physical Aspects of Salah


Book Description

Those who offer prayer in the present moment can feel their thoughts and act without self-judgment and similarly accept others without judgment. They consciously observe people, places and situations without changing themselves and accept people as they were. They remain aware and receptive to signals which are received by the body. They are fully alert and centered, free from fear and the need to impress others. They are able to know sensations which produce contractions or expansions in the body. There is no need to resist. They breathe in more warmth and energy and tensions have to surface and disappear. In the present moment, one accepts things as they are.
