We would kneel in prayer in the small country home and would beg God for his love and mercy.” [^1] Dale Carnegie again writes: “As the electricity, water and good food are useful and important in my life, so is faith. Electricity, water and food help me to provide a better and more comfortable life, but the advantages of religion relatively far exceed than all these material things. Religion gives me faith, hope and courage.

It takes fear and anxiety away from me; determines a course and an aim for my life. Religion, to a large extent, completes my happiness and gives me wellbeing. It helps me find a quiet oasis during the stormy times of my life. Today, the most modern science (psychology) teaches what the divine prophets have taught in the past. Why?

Because the psychiatrists have found out that prayer, meditation and having a strong religion, worry, anxiety and fear.” [^2] One of the pioneers in science says: “One who really believes in religion shall never have psychological disorders.” [^3] “Today, even the psychiatrists are preaching religion. They do not preach religion for the sake of saving us from the fires of Hell on the world to come.

Rather, from the hell of ulcer disease, Angina Pectoris, nervousness and insanity.” [^4] Dale Carnegie writes about the meeting he had with Henry Ford: “When I asked him if he had ever worried, he said no. He then said: “I believe that God takes care of everything. Besides, he needs no recommendation or guidance from me. Because God is in charge of things, he will do everything in the best way.

So there is no reason to worry.” [^5] If the late Mahatma Gandhi, who after Mahatma Buddha was the greatest leader in India, had not received help and inspiration from powerful prayers, he would definitely be destroyed. How do I knows this?

Well, from what he himself has said: “If it were not for the prayers, I would have long become insane.” [^6] Professor William James of Harvard University says: “The most effective medicine for anxiety is a religious belief.” [^7] In another place, he says: “Faith is one of the forces that man lives by and its total absence means the downfall of humanity.” [^8] Still, in another place he says: “The roaring waves on the surface of the oceans never disturb the peacefulness of their depth, and to those who are dealing with more significant sublime realities and who are more stable, the life's hourly ups and downs are rather insignificant.
