Prayer by Chairil Anwar
---------------------------------
PRAYER
-------------- To a firm adherent
My God
While deep in thought
I still call out Your name.
Though it is really difficult
To remember You as an entity whole-heartedly.
Your light, warm and pure.
Now glitters like a candle in the silent night.
My God
I've lost my form
Destroyed.
My God,
I wander in a foreign land.
My God,
I knock at your door
I can't turn back.
by Chairil Anwar 13 Nov. 1943

Many wives of the men who'd entered the mosque at call to prayer at Shah-i-Zinda sit on benches outside the necropolis, also in silent prayer.
The power in prayers is strong, cleansing, healing, and full of the hopes and dreams of those who pray.

Oh, Great Spirit who dwells in the sky,
Lead us to the path of peace and understanding.
Let all of us live together as brothers and sisters.
Our lives are so short here,
Walking upon Mother Earth's surface.
Let our eyes be opened to all the blessings you have given us.
Please hear my prayers, Oh, Great Spirit.

Faithful Jews are expected to prayer three times a day, morning, afternoon and night.
The man praying from the Torah on the right is wearing a Tefillin. These little black boxes contain selections from the Torah.
“Tefillin are two small black boxes with black straps attached to them; Jewish men are required to place one box on their head and tie the other one on their arm each weekday morning. Tefillin are biblical in origin, and are commanded within the context of several laws outlining a Jew's relationship to God. 'And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. Take to heart these instructions with which I charge you this day. Impress them upon your children. Recite them when you stay at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you get up. Bind them as a sign on your hand and let them serve as a frontlet between your eyes' (Deuteronomy 6:5-8).” www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/tefillin
