Hail, Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among womenand blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us, sons and daughters of God,
Now and at the hour of our victory
Over sin, disease and death.
🙏

When You Love An
Ancient Soul
♡.༺꧁💙꧂༻.♡
`

There is a special kind of
person in this world who is
often misunderstood.

These people tend to be the
loners, the free spirits,
the innocent lovers.

They see the world for all
they can, and should be,
although the world rarely
sees them.

They are the old souls, the
dreamers, the people in
tune with life, so intuitive
of emotions that they can
frighten us.

They frighten us not because
of who they are, but because of
who we are not, what we lack.

Ancient souls reach depths
we cannot understand.

They have a connection with God,
with the Universe, with Nature,
and that's why they are the people
who will change the world.

We often feel inferior,
as if we have to strive to stay
remotely close to their level,
to be worthy of their love.

It takes a confident person
to love an old soul.
But it's worth it.
It will change your life.

They are romantic, they are loyal,
they help us grow, they are not
materialistic, they understand
the deep connections in life.

They are grateful, they are
examples of bravery.

They walk the most painful roads
of this life, and yet somehow they
find the courage to smile, often
selfless. Supporting others.

Loving an old soul and being loved
by one is a gift from Heaven.

✨Mystics and Scientists Agree on the Benefit of Repeating Prayers

www.violetflame.com

Both mystics and scientists have demonstrated the benefits of repetitive prayer.

Hindus and Buddhists tell us that repetition allows the mind to focus on God.

Repetitive prayer is more prominent in Eastern religion than in Christianity, but it is still an important part of religious life in the West. Protestants sing hymns and offer lengthy prayers, depending on the denomination. Catholics recite the rosary repeating the Our Father and the Hail Mary, celebrate the Mass, sing hymns and experience peace in the sounds of ancient Gregorian chants. (The Cathars used to repeat the Lord's Prayer as many as forty times a day.)

Jewish mystics described a similar feeling after repeating the names of God. They called it a transforming moment in which they entered the highest state of consciousness possible for human beings.

The Eastern Orthodox Church has also preserved a tradition of repetitive prayer.

From the Buddhists and Hindu mala (Sanskrit "garland"), to the Catholic rosary, Anglican prayer beads, to the Muslim misbaja many faiths have a form of prayer beads to track their repetitive prayer rituals.

But for centuries, skeptics pooh-poohed repetitive prayer as a superstition without measurable benefit, often confusing Jesus' remonstration against rote prayer to include all repetitive prayer. Now, science has come to the aid of religion—a doctor at Harvard Medical School documenting beneficial physical effects from repetitive prayer, including the very prayers that monks used for centuries.

Many who decree have also felt this oneness with God.
