How Do You Pray?: Inspiring Responses from Religious Leaders, Spiritual Guides, Healers, Activists and Other Lovers of Humanity: summary, description and annotation

If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
As we evolve, so do our prayers; as our prayers evolve, so do we. This is the evolution of illumination, the collective voice of the soul of the world.
How Do You Pray? was born from a vision in which Celeste Yacoboni was told to ask the world, How Do You Pray? She reached out to leading spiritual, shamanic, scientific teachers, guides, and activists and asked for their response. Culled from those responses is an original and deeply personal collection of essays. Talking intimately and candidly about how they pray, these personalities encourage the reader to contemplate the intention of prayer in their own life.
This collection speaks to the readers heart and asks What is your souls expression? How do you dance in ecstasy, bare your soul to the divine? Bow in gratitude? Merge with nature? Cry out for guidance? How do you pray?
This groundbreaking and moving book gathers responses from leaders of diverse spiritual and religious traditions ranging from Buddhism to Islam to Christianity, as well as those who do not claim one or any particular walk of faith. Contributors include Brother David Steindl-Rast, Matthew Fox, James ODea, Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, Tessa Bielecki, Lama Surya Das, Hank Wesselman, Father Bede Griffiths, Byron Katie, Joan Halifax, Normandi Ellis, Andrew Harvey, Dan Millman, Kristena Prater, Nicki Scully, Mirabai Starr, and more.
This book is a beautiful gift package with matte laminate cover and red ribbon.

I bow to the Mystery that revealed itself as the vision for this book. The inquiry: How do you pray? has deepened my life. I am so grateful for all the prayers that have been said and sent to me. The ones in this book and the ones that arent. And to the seeds that have been planted in our hearts and not yet spoken. I express my deep appreciation to my guides, mentors, friends and family who have inspired and supported me in ways knowing and unknowing. Though I wont name them all here, I hold them dear in my heart. I am filled with gratitude for the books contributors who generously shared the voices of their hearts and souls so openly and tenderly.
And I express my deep appreciation to:
Paul Cohen, my publisher at Monkfish, who in his first email shared how his own vision was in alignment with How Do You Pray? and answered my prayer for the right publisher to bring this book out to the world;
My editor, Anastasia McGhee, for her depth of presence, patience, skill and support;
Danielle Ferrara, for the cover and layout and so much more;
Colin Rolfe, for the finishing touches;
Susan Slotter, my angels angel, who midwifed the birth of this vision from start to finish in a multitude of creative and technical roles, and held every aspect as sacred and brought that sacredness into form;
My soul coach, Patricia Flasch, who held the vision from the beginning and wrote the very first contribution;
Multidimensional thinker Michael Gelb, whose laser perception and guidance focused my intention, which has manifested in this book;
Nancy Andersen, who took my vision and created the original sanctuary website;
Marco Britt, for evolving the website and being of service;
Jason Rodriguez, for his creativity with the visual book;
Photographer Jennifer Esperanza, whose many photos illustrated the prayers and whose photo of a little girl praying captured the purity of the vision; Marcia Wieder, for offering me what I needed before I even asked;
Hubert Lee, for his brilliance with marketing and promotion;
Zuleikha, for her intuition and kindness;
Mirabai Starr, who held the torch to light my way, and overflowed with support and guidance;
Andrew Harvey, for his radical honesty and recommendations;
Dunya, for our ritual of morning tea and spiritual conversationsohbet;
Robyn Benson, for her care and for encouraging me to share;
Arjuna Ardagh and Sedena and George Cappannelli, for going the extra step;
BiBi Dietz, for her transcription wizardry;
Bob Keeton, for his audio and video genius and generosity;
Sr. Pascaline Coff and the Bede Griffiths International Literary Trust, for their support in bringing Fr. Bede Griffiths prayer to these pages;
Amritapriya and Steve Schmidt for Ammas Prayer;
Jalaluddin Rumi, Sufi mystic and poet whose words inspire me to listen and speak from my heart;
My mother Millie, who is a constant source of love, inspiration and support; the loving memory of my father Joseph, who is always with me;
My brother Ty and his wife Kathy; my brother Brian and my nephew Nic;
Lillian, my second mother and friend; children Austin and Becky and grandson Asher, who fill me with joy;
And lastly, my beloved husband Mark, who has supported me in ways too many to mention, and to whom I am forever grateful.
