The Lord’s Prayer is the primary prayer to God
At the end of the prayer, we say: In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit together form the Holy Trinity. They represent the One – different qualities or aspects of God.
The Father
The Father represents wholeness, completeness – a state we were once part of. In our Fatherly essence, we recognize that we are all part of the One, living not in separation but in unity. Love permeates all our thoughts and actions.
When we look around the world today, we mostly see separation. Our task now is to awaken from this dormant state, begin working on ourselves, and start learning, growing, and transforming to see the world through a new lens.
The Son
The Son is part of the Father, emerging from Him, representing a fragment rather than the whole. This quality, vibration, or state of consciousness is what we humans currently embody.
Once, humanity lived in unity with God, but we became separate and forgot that we are part of the One. We sould set aside the fragmented mindset we have created and awaken to the realization that we all belong to the same whole.
We should return to unity, we should return to the Fatherly essence. This can be achieved through the path of love.
The Holy Spirit
Knowledge is the path that, once mastered, leads us back to the Fatherly essence or to the quality of wholeness – a higher vibrational frequency of state of consciousness. It is a teaching “program” showing us how to rise again.
Christ brought us this same knowledge, teaching us how to return to unity. He taught that there is only one path: learning to love – both ourselves and others – and thinking in unity.
From this perspective, parallels can be drawn between the Holy Spirit and Christ, as both guide us along the path of Atonement.
During the process of Atonement, we confront ourselves and gradually let go of old patterns. This process continues as long as there are things to release.
The Power of Prayer
Prayer is a profoundly powerful form of meditation. When we pray or meditate, we step through a gateway into a different state of being. We connect with God and share in His love, elevating the vibration of our hearts.
This is a very uplifting experience, reminding us that we are never alone. There is always a confidant by our side, someone we can turn to with any question at any time. He is never tired and will never say he has no time for us. He always responds in the way that suits us best.
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit serve as a program or path for us humans to reach higher consciousness and return to unity. This process is supported by a higher power.
The Lord’s Prayer
Let us analyze its text through this perspective.
The Lord’s Prayer has 13 lines. While the number 13 is often considered unlucky (e.g., Friday the 13th), in this case, it is profoundly fortunate, as repeating the Lord’s Prayer brings us closer to God and our true selves.
Our Father, which art in heaven | The state that is unified and whole. A state we should return to. Heaven is high, above us—we must strive upward. We need to train ourselves spiritually, step by step, ascending each rung of the ladder to reach a higher level of consciousness. No steps can be skipped. |
Hallowed be Thy name | God strives for unity and represents it; He does not promote separation. He is like us because we are a part of Him. From a spiritual perspective, consecration is the process during which, for example, a priest raises his hand holding a wafer during Mass and blesses it. A blessing is a wish of goodwill. The Fatherly state is a blessing for us because we are in unity with ourselves and others—and for God as well, for we are united with Him too. |
Thy kingdom come | A harmonious, whole, and more joyful world where we rediscover the higher state of consciousness, led by love in our actions and thoughts. |
Thy will be done | That is, to find our way back to the Source, to our true selves, to love, to wholeness, to unity, and to transform. |
On earth as it is in heaven | We can reach a higher state of consciousness here on Earth. |
Give us this day our daily bread | May we have the strength to learn every day, for only through learning can we grow and change. |
And forgive us our trespasses | That we have separated ourselves from Him and others. |
As we forgive those who trespass against us | We forgive others for their separation from us. |
And lead us not into temptation | May He help us to rise by following His path and considering His teachings. |
But deliver us from evil | From ignorance. Gaining knowledge we must fight for it, primarily by conquering ourselves. |
For Thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory | Attaining the Fatherly quality is the goal. |
For ever and ever | Learning and growth are eternal (the soul is everlasting). |
Amen | So be it. Amen. |
The Holy Spirit provides us with the knowledge to ascend to a higher state of being.
If we compare ourselves to the Son, we belong to the fragment, not the whole. Our task is to return to the Father – to the whole. The Son represents separation.
We must rediscover who we are, where we came from, where we are headed, and the possibilities available to us.
