Hey GX do you understand this:

God – Country – Religion – me and mine.

This is a general structure that I follow. We can substitute any words here.
I guess that this is a structure of culture

The type of prayer is a personal thing. My prayers are of thanks giving. I thank the universe for the day and then my parents and for all those that have gone before us that gave us what we have today. Things like that.
From what Ive read. Prayers of thanks for things you have and things you wish to receive are the most powerful. That is how I pray as well

I stopped meditating because the experience is to powerful for me. I was a non-believer for most of my life so the spiritual thing is too powerful for me. It is like an out of body experience.
That very interesting that you say that. Meditation is a precursor to an out of body experience. If you feel your body swaying or if you feel vibrations when meditating, that is a sign that your are about to leave your body. I love to meditate and learned to do so inadvertently. When I came back from work tired, I wasnt able to fall asleep so I just decided to lie still, clear my mind and relax which is what meditation is. I feel very refreshed afterwards.
