How to Pray to Gods
Praying to gods in My Religion is nothing fancy. You can do it any time any place whenever you feel comfortable. The most important thing is that your soul (your inner-self) must be balanced, that is not in conflict with the rest of you and outer world. Don't worry - this state of your soul happens pretty often. You will know it because your soul and you will want to sing (out loud or otherwise), this moment you feel happiness. And this is the right moment to pray to gods.
You may establish an altar (outdoors or indoors), but it isn't a necessity at all. You do not need torrents of water, or firestorms, or Gods Indra / Perun / Theus / Thor thunderstorms - simply because the power of Agni is the same even in the tiniest particle, sparkle of fire ... So you can use a candle, a burning match or a straw, a fire-pit, a real (not faked) fireplace, or burn firewood in the backyard. The fire must be real - not faked, not electrical, not virtual ...
The water, just one drop of water is enough. You could use a plate, a bowl, any container with water, a glass of water will work. Water must be water, not wine, or other liquid...
The earth - whenever you touch the real earth, or hold in your hand a part of it - such as a rock, a pebble, a lump of dirt, or a road dust, or you're lying on the ground and feel your Mother Earth - it all will work.
The Sky, the Sun, Moon, stars, clouds - they're always with you. Just raise your head, and hands, or simply your eyes and connect ...
The Wind - you need to actually feel it. So go outside, and try to feel the wind, to hear it through the tree leaves talking to you, or waves on the rolling breathing of your river or lake, or sea surface.
Lower your hands into water for a moment, light up your fire, throw in it a little of what food you have around, just a crumble ... See the fire gets brighter - the god accepted your gift. Lie down, touch the ground - your only ever-loving and ever-present Mother Earth. Go outside and look at the skies, connect with the Sun and clouds, hear the whisper of the Wind. Wash your face and hands in the rain or snow.
Then close your eyes, and close your mind, and turn to your subconscience, meditate. Believe, because you know that not your will but your inner (night) soul is so powerful that it can create whole worlds and move away mountains. You know it because your soul is connected with powerful gods - your own gods. And you are a tiny but still part of all of Them. Meditate and try to connect. When you're connected you will feel how the energy flows toward you, how you can hear more, see better, understand faster, and how you become more compassionate to the world.
You do not need to know and repeat any special magic mantras, or learn and memorize secret words because your gods understand you without words. But your soul must be balanced and happy, your soul must want to sing. And that's the secret of praying to Gods!
You do not need any cauldrons, or knives, or magic circles with kabbalistical pentagrams because these sacred things were invented by people not by your gods. If those accessories help you make your inner-self happy, go ahead and use them. They not sacred for your gods. What is sacred is your connection with them, your ability to connect with them, to love and respect them.
Now you know that you'll never again be lonely in this lonesome world. Now you have your gods, you're always connected, you're powerful almost like your gods, and my gods, too.
A little about compassion. We all - people and animals, and plants are brothers and sisters. We all belong to the same world, we all created from the same material, and we have common gods and common history, and common destiny. Compassion is a skill toknow and to be willing to respect each other, and recognize rights of each other. I personally feel that the Tatiana Tiger had a complete right to protect herself against rocks and pinecones, and whatever those young thugs were throwing at her. But her right to defend herself was not recognized by the human society, and she was killed.
I pray for Tatiana's soul, and I pray that her soul was reconnected peacefully with the rest of our souls in one big unity from where we all came from, and where we all are destined to return. Sooner or later. We all - people, birds, cats and dogs, and tigers, too.
I ask you all if you read this and agree with what I said to pray for Tatiana the Siberian Tiger shot to death in her San-Francisco city jail for animals.

This is how to help your inner-self to get connected with gods:
...Close your eyes ... And close your mind.
I talk to your sub-conscience, To that nocturnal ego That is our body ruler ...
It is imagination not our will That does create things.
You only say That you are powerful enough
And you'll create New worlds ...
And move the mountains Without any help...
