When
we stand for Prayer after performing ablution our body is first loose but when
we raise our hands for making intention to pray, naturally, firmness is
produced in the body. When we are in this state we are released from the grip
of inferior thoughts. By standing straight, lights from the base of the brain
travel through the backbone and then spread into all the organs. We are all
familiar with the fact that the backbone plays a vital role in one’s physical
health and the excellence of health is dependent upon the flexibility of this
backbone.
The standing in Prayer provides strength to the knees, ankles,
feet, calves and the fingers and joints of the hand. It also brings an end to
the pain caused by rheumatism but the condition is that the legs must not be
bent when standing.
