Why do Buddhists pray? I am somewhat confused as to why Buddhists pray. In most religions that believe in a Creator God, it's like sending a letter to Him. With your requests, thanks, and usual thoughts. What do Buddhists pray for? What do Buddhists pray to? I've heard with regards to Amida Buddha, but, what do the other Buddhists pray to? How do they think their prayers are beneficial? Thank you. Greetings, This interpretation may vary from Buddhist to Buddhist, but my experience is that prayer is not meant to be a grasping to anything external. Rather, it is the continued commitment to work for the gain in all sentient beings - one could say it reaffirms your vows. Through prayer we transform our inner world into a peaceful place to dwell. When we are at peace, we modify our external conditions as well, and set an example for all sentient beings. So as I said, when I sit and say the Seven Line Supplication to Padmakara, I am not praying to Guru Rinpoche. Guru Rinpoche dead a long time ago, and will not magically come sweeping in to answer my prayers. Rather, I am calling forth his strength and his mind to be my own, so I may then carry out similar acts of kindness. He set an example, and I wish to follow that example. I hope this helped. It's the best comprehensible statement that I may offer. Take care. |
