Findings at the Columbia University: In 2001, two researchers and a Columbia University fertility expert published startling findings in a prestigious medical journal: Women undergoing fertility treatment who had been prayed for by a religious group were twice as likely to have a successful pregnancy as those who had not.
Ten studies regarding Prayers by Researchers: In fact, the state financing of intercessory prayer research began in the mid 1990s and has continued under President George Bush. And since 2000, at least 10 studies of intercessory prayer have been carried out by researchers at Institutions including the Mind-Body Medical Institute, a non-profit clinic near Boston run by a Harvard trained cardiologist, as well as Duke University and the University of Washington. Dr. Richard J. McNally, a psychologist at Harvard says, Intercessory prayer presupposes some supernatural intervention that is by definition beyond the reach of science."
"Love and magic have a great deal in common. They enrich the soul delight the heart. And they both take practice," says Nora Roberts. And, says the great physicist Albert Einstein, "Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds."
Lord Krishna defines His relationships with our existence in Gita as follows:
1."I the Father of the world, the Mother, the ordainer, the first creator?"(IX-17).
2."I the Master, the Witness?the benignant Friend?I the path and goal, the upholder?the house, the country, the refuse?" (IX-18).
3."I am the Self that exists in the hearts of all beings?"(X-20).
4."I am the mind among senses; in living beings, I am the consciousness?" (X-22).
Mankind's kindlessness: The problem confronting the mankind is the lack of kindness itself. There is a growing spiritual vacuum. The human race is afflicted with never before problems of internal and external conflicts. If we go by the advancement in technology, what we invented for benefits is proving against us, it may be atomic energy, electronics or even communication technology. And with these technologies, we know that it will not take many men to finish the entire humankind on this planet and not much time either. Only a few angry men can do that. So we have to spiritually bind the humanity so that our differences don't become divisions, to be not converted into conflicts or else the human race would be down to the path of self-destruction. Lord krishna says that all powers, qualities and feelings proceed from the Spiritual, Divine:
"Understanding, knowledge, freedom from delusion, forebearance, truth, restraint of the external senses, calmness of heart, pleasure and grief, birth and death, fear and fearlessness, non-injury, equality, contentment, austerity, benevolence, good name and ill name?(these) different kinds of qualities of beings arise from me." Gita.IV-5.
"I am all seizing death and prosperity of those who are to be prosperous!" Gita. X-34.S
"And whatsoever is the seed of all beings, that also am I; nothing moving or unmoving, animate or inanimate in the world exists without me." Gita. X-39.
"I am Time, the head of reckoning of those who reckon?" Gita. X-30
"I am the imperishable Time; I am the Master (of all existence) whose faces are everywhere." Gita. X-33.
"?I am Ram?" Gita. X-31.
"?Of the feminine qualities, I am glory, beauty, speech, memory, intelligence, constancy and forbearance." Gita. X-34
Father and son bond with God: Only an approach with a spiritual solution can indeed play pivotal role in straitening the psyche of the man suffering since thousands of years. The spiritual solution will orient the psyche, hearts, motivations and actions of the man healing inside out. The spiritual effort can spread from man to man, enlightening every being. All the same, we have to solve our own conflicts from the inside before we can resolve between us. Only creating a father & son bond with God can do this spiritual exercise.
God gives recognition to our faith:
"The faith of every man is according to his natural disposition. Man consists of the faith. What his faith is, that verily he is". Gita. XVII
"Whatever form of Me, a devotee with faith wishes to worship, I make that faith of his undeviating." Gita. VII-21.
"As men approach Me, so I accept them; Men follow in every way My path". Gita.IV-11.
About our solving the problems of our sins the Lord says:
"Even if you be the most sinful among the sinful, yet by the raft of knowledge, you shall go across all sins". Gita. IV-36.
"Abandoning all Dharma, take refuge in Me alone; I will liberate you from all sins; grieve not". Gita.XVIII-66.
The Lord advises consoles and assures:
"Three fold are the doors of hell, destructive of the soul?desire, wrath and greed; therefore man should cast away these". Gita.XVI-21.
"A man liberated from these doors of darkness, follows his own higher good and arrives at the highest soul status". Gita.XVI-22.
So my dear brothers and sisters, we have seen what the researchers have found, what the Indian seers have been conveying the messages of Lord Krishna, which are termed in solving pain through God's grace. God's grace will depend on our capacities that are we willing to take God in our lives? Are we ready for the miracles of God in our lives? Because God is there not to punish us, rather He is there to heal us and is therefore not far away. He is too ready to help his devotees, the righteousness, and is a call away from our hearts, literally.
