Reseña del editor

Prayer may be roughly divided into those which treat of its scientific aspect, whether it be from the standpoint of philosophy or from that of psychology, and those which are written with a purely devotional purpose. In these pages I have endeavoured to elucidate the meaning and value of prayer as a creative process, whereby the man who prays and his world are made anew. In Chapter I. I have sought to present what I conceive to be the fundamental conditions of prayer as creative energy. The worshipper, as Pro fessor W. E. Hocking has it, does not merely sustain, but creates. All beauty, as Plato thought, incites to reproduction. It incites perhaps to something more than reproduction to origination. Some superabundance there is in the vision of God which sends the seer back not to the old but to the new. This creative vision is a central element in Christian prayer. In Chapters II. and III. I have dealt with two great aids to creative prayer Silence and Meditation trying to show that, so far from being the esoteric hobbies of mystical devotees, they are essential to the virile discipline of the spiritual life.
