[[91:1|91:1.4]]  [[Prayer]] is only monologuous in the most [[primitive]] type of [[mind]]. It early becomes a [[dialogue]] and rapidly expands to the level of [[group]] [[worship]]. Prayer signifies that the premagical [[incantations]] of [[primitive religion]] have evolved to that level where the [[human mind]] recognizes the [[reality]] of beneficent powers or beings who are able to enhance [[social]] [[values]] and to augment [[moral]] [[ideals]], and further, that these influences are [[superhuman]] and distinct from the [[ego]] of the [[self-conscious]] human and his fellow [[mortals]]. '''''True prayer''''' does not, therefore, appear until the agency of religious ministry is visualized as [[personal]].
