Contemplative Prayer

Is a catch-all term, encompassing a variety of meditative, and deep meditative practices, which promise a deeper more intimate relationship with the God within, or the divine essence of God, or the divine soul of man. 

Contemplative prayer also embraces Centering Prayer, Breath Prayer, and Transcendental Meditation techniques, and their associated phenomenon.


Contemplative prayer induces an 'altered state of consciousness'

Splitting the psyche and deceiving the participant into believing they have become God (Deification), or have experienced a 'powerful experience of the Holy Spirit', or have entered a world within where they become superhuman; with all known human problems and conditions healed, or transcended.
