"like the indians and their animal spirit guides would pray for rain"

I suspect that rain would be one of their prayers. Superstitious people generally will pray for anything they feel they need. I looked about the internet but did not find a rain prayer. I found a ten commandment prayer, however. I suppose this would be a transformative approach.

  1. Treat the earth an all that dwell theron with respect
  2. Remain close to the Great Spirit
  3. Show great respect for your fellow beings
  4. Work together for the benefit of all humankind
  5. Give assistance and kindness wherever needed
  6. Do what you know to be right
  7. Look after the well-being of mind and body
  8. Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good
  9. Be truthful and honest at all times
  10. Take full responsibility for your actions
Obviously, prayer has no effect on when or where rain falls! But the above type of prayer can transform a person over time through the law of nature known as what I think and do, happens.

No supernatural agency is involved in this or any other prayer. The laws of Nature are involved. What you do, happens--whether you fold or raise or jump off a bridge! It does not matter how much skin you wear off your knees--or how much you rend your breast, or tear your hair!
