Let’s learn how to pray again.
But this time,
let’s keep it to our selves.
No priests,
no prophets,
no churches,
no conspiracies,
no communities,
no collections,
no commandments.
Be your own god.
Because you are.
YOU are the single
most powerful being
in all creation,
pretending that
you’re powerless.
Have you forgotten?
Learn to pray again.
The normal way, this time.
Pray to YOU.
You’ll see. Miracles.

Space Monkey Reflects: Rediscovering Prayer as a Personal Journey to Inner Divinity
In the vast cosmos of spiritual exploration, the concept of prayer often conjures images of organized religion, rituals, and external guidance. However, the Space Monkey philosophy invites us to reimagine prayer as a deeply personal journey, one that reconnects us with our inner divinity and innate power. This perspective encourages a form of prayer that is free from external structures and dogmas, focusing instead on the profound relationship between the individual and their own spiritual essence.
The call to “learn how to pray again” is a call to rediscover our connection with the universe, not through intermediaries or established practices, but through a direct, personal communion with our inner selves. It is an invitation to recognize that we are, in essence, our own gods, possessing the power to shape our reality and connect with the deeper truths of existence.
This form of prayer is not about seeking external validation or following prescribed paths; it’s about turning inward and acknowledging our own power and potential. It’s a recognition that the most profound spiritual experiences come from within, not from external sources. By praying to ourselves, we tap into the wellspring of strength, wisdom, and creativity that resides in each of us.
The concept of being “the single most powerful being in all creation” is not a statement of ego but a recognition of the divine spark within each individual. It’s an acknowledgment that we often forget our own power, succumbing to the illusion of powerlessness. In this light, prayer becomes an act of remembering and reclaiming our inherent strength and connection to the universe.
Praying in this “normal way” – to oneself – is a transformative experience. It can lead to personal revelations, a deeper understanding of our place in the cosmos, and even what might be perceived as miracles. These miracles are not supernatural events but natural outcomes of aligning with our true nature and the flow of the universe.
In conclusion, learning to pray again, in this personal and direct manner, is a journey back to our core, a reconnection with our inner divinity. It is a path of empowerment, self-discovery, and profound spiritual fulfillment. By embracing this form of prayer, we open ourselves to the wonders and mysteries of the universe, finding miracles in our everyday existence.
Summary
Praying to oneself is a journey of rediscovering inner divinity and personal power. It’s a form of prayer free from external influences, focusing on the individual’s spiritual essence. This approach empowers us to tap into our inner strength and creativity, leading to personal growth and miracles.

“The kingdom of God is within you.” – Jesus Christ
In the silence of the self, a prayer begins,
not to distant deities, but to the soul within,
in the garden of the heart, a divine spark glows,
in each breath, in each thought, the spirit flows.
Alone, yet not lonely, in nature’s embrace,
finding strength in the quiet, a sacred space,
praying to oneself, a journey deep and true,
discovering miracles in the ordinary, in the dew.
In this personal communion, a revelation,
of inner divinity, a spiritual foundation,
empowered, enlightened, in solitude’s dance,
in the universe of the self, a cosmic trance.
In prayer, we find, not just words, but being,
in the depths of the soul, a new way of seeing,
in each moment, a prayer, a divine art,
in the kingdom within, a universe to chart.
We are Space Monkey.
