I love the orthodox Jesus Prayer repetition thing so much

I don't count the repetitions unless I'm mediating on His Wounds, I do that on rosary beads with each decade for a Wound and in-between prayers,

but sometimes I just want to use a silent activity or moment to repeat the prayer to Jesus while simply thinking about His life, love, and mercy

Not vain repetition, but simple yet powerful words to be chanted in the spirit of prayer or repentance, each movement of my tongue is an offering of my soul to my beloved Lord

It's a declaration of who He is, but as well a plea to burn my sins back to dust and replace them with the beams of His Mercy

So I repeat and repeat as my soul fills with love for Christ

O' Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have Mercy on me, a sinner.

✨ THE LORD’S PRAYER: THE WAY JESUS ACTUALLY SPOKE IT

by Sha’Liyah Vareya

Most of us learned the Lord’s Prayer in English, but Jesus spoke it in Aramaic — a language of breath, vibration, and living symbolism. When we return to the original words, the entire prayer becomes a map of awakening, not a ritual recitation

Below is the true spiritual meaning of each line as it would have been understood by the early disciples.

1. “Our Father who art in Heaven”

Aramaic: Abwûn d’bwashmaya

Jesus wasn’t describing a distant male deity.

Abwûn means Sacred Birther, Father-Mother, Source of Life, the Womb of All That Is.

“Heaven” means the inner realms, the higher vibration within every soul.

✨ Jesus begins by reminding us where we come from — the Divine Source inside us

2. “Hallowed be Thy Name”

Aramaic: Nethqadash shmakh

God’s “Name” means God’s nature, identity, and vibration

✨ Jesus is saying:

‘May Your essence become visible in me.

3. “Thy Kingdom come”

Aramaic: Teytey malkuthakh

Malkutha means the Field of Oneness, the Divine Order, God’s Sovereign Reality.

✨ Not a far-off kingdom — but the awakening we are meant to embody right here

4. “Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven”

Aramaic: Nehwey tzevyanach...

God’s “will” is God’s deep desire, not domination.

“Heaven” means consciousness.

“Earth” means the body and physical life.

✨ Jesus teaches that the inner and outer must become one —

Spirit embodied in the human life

5. “Give us this day our daily bread”

Aramaic: Havlan lachma…

“Bread” means: wisdom, nourishment, insight, strength for the journey

✨ We are asking God to feed the soul, not just the body

6. “Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive…”

Aramaic: Washboqlan hawbayn…

“Forgive” in Aramaic means to untie the knots, to unbind the cords of hurt.

✨ Jesus teaches that forgiveness is energetic freedom — for us and for others.

7. “Lead us not into temptation”

Aramaic: Wela ta‘lan l’nesyuna

This does NOT mean that God tempts us.

It means:

“Do not let us fall into confusion or illusion.”

✨ Guide us so we stay centered in truth

8. “Deliver us from evil”

Aramaic: Ela patzan min bisha

“Evil” in Aramaic means distortion, disharmony, or what is still unripe.

✨ Free us from anything that pulls us out of alignment with who we truly are

9. “For Thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory”

A later liturgical addition — but powerful.

✨ All things arise from the Divine Source and return to it.

All power is God’s. All glory is God’s vibration.

✨ THE HEART OF JESUS’ PRAYER

When heard in its original Aramaic, the Lord’s Prayer becomes:

A path of alignment A breath-by-breath awakening A blueprint of Christ consciousness, A summoning of God’s presence into our bodies, choices, and lives

It is not simply a prayer to recite, it is a frequency to become.

This is the way Jesus taught it:

as an activation of the inner Kingdom.
