Is a judgement also happening if in the midst of prayer your child or spouse comes into your room and starts talking to you about whatever they choose. Sometimes that happens to me and I have to start the prayer again. Is that ok to do or should you just go back to where you left off when the person wanted to talk to you?

The context of prayer - by freedom of imagination : Today world is saturated with color. A rich palette applied to the wast sea of manmade forms and objects, from smallest to giant, all conceived with one and the same aim - to grab attention . The spirit of seduction is breth into it at the very moment of designe's conception. Atempt of buying a simple bottle of water at the nearest convenience store - for the next few minutes mind belongs to the water bottle producers and is lost in deciding from which bottle is going to drink some water -it is placed in forgetfulness (though, water bottles are pretty serene in appearance ....) Day goes bay, so many steps, so many attention grabbers, inanimate seducers. Days and days lost in forgetfulness. What this colourful circuses want me for forget? Who am I ? - I am Israel. Where do I origin? - I am an asset of The Heavenly Kingdom Why do I pray? I step into space of prayer and pronounce it the consular space of the Heavenly Kingdom. I am dealing my homeland - establishing communication. When I sing " ehad" the impulse is sent to the far most out reach and the little lamp turns green at the heavenly board, alerting the system that I am operational - at service, My Homeland, My Only One! Who is Israel? Israel is terrestrial angel, the one who received body -s and therefore the agency in the material realm. But intentions are strong on Israel to forget this.... What Israel knows? Israel knows how to enter the Rays of Gold into this place. The membrane used to be permeable. Light could reach here, radiant, bright. Forgetfulness..... Membrane is now imperméable. Suffocation is attending maximum level. What this has to do with prayer? This membrane is as a membrane containing the newborn and the water surrounding it in mother's womb. If it does not burst in time, the water turnes bad. Sometimes it would just not break naturally. The membrane must be pierced mechanically for the birth to happen. The tool is used. A very very fine lame - tiny blade. What this has to do with the prayer? Israel knows this prayer . The tiny blade prayer. It is spoken from below to above. From this place inside the membrane to the heavenly realm beyond. All the words of this prayer start with the same letter The piercing letter of Israel's language Israel is a poet Israel loves it's language Israel feels the fier of each letter's sound spoken Israel is a man Israel is a woman They do not know each other but at the heavenly board their lamps light up sinhrono Israel woman and Israel man are speaking the tiny blade prayer unisono They're not aware of this Israel knows in it's stomach when is the place and time Israel trembles in the urgency ............................................................ שש שש שש שש שש שש שש שש שש The Rays of Gold Here Again
