AN ANCIENT MAGICAL PRAYER Insights from the Dead Sea Scrolls

The author of THE ISAIAH EFFECT explains the way prayer, prophecy, and the quantum mechanical forces behind them can transcend the way these phenomena are typically used in the major religious traditions of today. Prayer in particular, Braden says, is a force that ancient cultures used to change weather, disease, and important events, and it is still used today by some people to change such things. The program is a neat summary of the author's ideas framed nicely by the sage comments of Dr. Chopra and by the palpable admiration of the live audience. Braden's sincerity and devotion to his subject will reward the spirit, as well as the ear. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/MAY 03]
