What Is the Connection Between Prayer, the Chakras, and Prana?

A believer does not pray in order to attract prana, draw on the four sources of energy, open the chakras, attract positive energy or repel negative energy. Prayer is solely a means of drawing closer to God.

The intention to draw near to God and seek His pleasure connects a person to sacred majesty. Whoever prays for any of the reasons mentioned above, or for anything similar, offers a prayer that is not God-centred or sincere. Prayer is a relationship with God; through this profound connection, one receives indescribable divine blessings, beside which the attraction of energy is utterly insignificant.

Let us take care not to compromise the sincerity of our prayer. It must be offered purely for the sake of God.

Scientific critique: Note that the claim that the body’s seven points of contact during prostration correspond to the chakras as centres for attracting and releasing energy is utterly false. First, centres for attracting and releasing energy do not exist in the way described; the body’s principal seven points are located elsewhere. Second, is there any place in the human body that is not a centre for attracting and releasing something? Moreover, many of the specific energy-related centres are inside the body and do not touch the ground during prostration or get washed with water!...
