The prayer-request, although false in its purpose, is still useful to the soul, it is still a sign of dependence on God. The mistake consists in transferring the timeless present into the future and the spiritual into the corporeal.
"Romanian
"Rugăciunea-cerere, deși falsă prin scopul său, e totuși de folos sufletului, e totuși un semn al dependenței de Dumnezeu. Greșeală constă în transferul prezentului atemporal în viitor și al spiritualului în corporal."
