A Blessing is a prayer directed to God, the Creator, seeking the growth and development of any human being, living organism, or even non-living materials. This is done to optimize their potential. Only enlightened beings have the ability to benefit others through their blessings.
Through their prayers, enlightened beings can strengthen the connection between humans and the God of their understanding. Consequently, individuals begin to harness more Divine Grace or the Energy of Consciousness. This energy has the potential to evolve them, leading to enhanced performance and well-being.
Consciousness possesses the characteristics to organize and evolve every particle and every human being. Thus, if a person can harness a greater amount of this consciousness energy or Divine Grace, they can accelerate their evolution, fully realizing their inherent gifts. As a result, they can experience a higher quality of life marked by good physical, mental, and emotional health, as well as improved financial situations, relationships, and perceptions of life.
Prayer has the power to elevate the consciousness of any individual or object. When this elevation occurs in a human, it is often referred to as the empowerment of the soul. Many religious scriptures equate the soul with consciousness, which is why it's said that the soul is an extension of God within the human body. This presence is responsible for our existence, and the Grace of God, also known as Divine Grace, is synonymous with consciousness.
