"Do I know the real meaning of my prayers?"
For the last 28 years, to be honest, I did not know the real meaning of my prayers. I just did what I had been told. I thought as long as I did it, I would be fine.
Lately, I was wondering what if my future children ask me "why do I have to say prayers? what does it mean?" A father does not know the answer to that significant question. That would be trouble for me, let alone my children.
Fortunately, my dearest grandparents gave a book for my wedding present. After sitting down on the shelf for three months, the book sent its knowledge to me. It does not tell me what to do. Instead, it gives several perspectives on 'why,' 'what' and 'how.'
Believe me it is not easy to understand. However, I have decided to learn step by step. Now I can say that if people really know the meaning of their prayers, they will be wiser and more peaceful than they are now.
Hope people in my country and around the world understand the real meaning of their prayers.... what about you? have you?
