Is Prayer An Expression Of Ego?

It’s a matter of degree really. Praying for your brother to be safe on his mountain climbing expedition (which has say 5% ego because at some level you don’t want to lose him, thus your love has a tinge of possessiveness) versus praying that the old lady you’re scamming of her retirement savings doesn’t realize what you’re up to, there’s a clear difference between these two.

The overall outcome, people involved, intentions of the requester, his nature, the reasons for his request, how much it goes against or fits into the destiny / freewill of all involved, its cascading effects into the future and whom that would affect, whether or not any lessons would be learned, whether those lessons would be worth the cost, etc. these all factor into it, if we’re going to consider a case where it’s a higher being deciding whether to take action or not. It’s not much different then, from a judge or jury making a decision based on the evidence and testimonies given.

So the line isn’t clear-cut and could vary case by case based on those factors mentioned above. Let’s say someone has 75% ego in praying for a hot red Camaro because he feels insecure and lonely and needs the approval of others including acquiring a trophy wife to improve his social standing. Now let’s say a higher being or his higher self knows this isn’t a wise thing to request, but it sees an opportunity in the future where this could turn out to be worth it. Let’s say the guy didn’t have much else planned for his life, so there’s an opportunity for a bonus lesson. So he gets the Camaro, gets the trophy wife, and all his friends become jealous and turn on him, he realizes everyone envies his position, he loses his friends. His trophy wife turns out to be a real materialistic shallow spider and after a bitter divorce takes his wealth. Then he’s left with nothing, having lost everything, and finally realizes the fulfillment he desired was an illusion and the price was emptiness, pain, and loss. After facing the dark night of his soul, he turns within and readjusts his priorities and pursues more organic, spiritual, human goals and in the end becomes a better person for it. Hence his prayer was fulfilled, because it carried that potential outcome.

Not everything one manifests requires higher beings to work it for you. You can, through your own occult power and belief, manifest a lot of things, which beyond a certain point gets into black magic territory. If you have a higher self, it would allow it reluctantly due to the laws of freewill; if you exercise your freewill with enough intensity through focused intent, then you can break through most barriers. People don’t have to be nice ethical folks in order to fulfill their wishes. Through black magick, voodoo, or just a fiery ambition they can bend the will of others and bend probability into manifesting their desires. There’s a price to be paid in the end, but like a credit card the debt can be racked up for a long time, even lifetimes, before being repaid with severe interest rates. So you’ll see certain jerky rich folks or crime bosses who have this “power” that propels them to success but through illicit and immoral means. It’s because they don’t doubt themselves, so they don’t have limitation programming; and they have a strong will and what the 19th century occultists called personal magnetism, which is an auric energy field that bends minds and probabilities.

I’d say it’s about as complicated as chemistry or physics, which themselves are just about energy and momentum conservation which sounds simple but in application it can get complex.

Personally, I advise removing artificial / matrix / social programming that limits you from fulfilling your own spiritual potential and destiny, and exercising the reality creation power only for things that are in alignment with your heart and wisdom, and beyond that maintain a neutral-to-positive vibe level (mindset and attitude) with an eye toward a bit of gratitude, acknowledgement of the unity behind the essence of all things, and notice of beauty wherever it is found, so that you leave it open then what positive stuff occurs which is the best way to leave ego out of it.
