Andrew Harvey – Igniting the Flame of Prayer
Receive initiation into the ancient science and practice of sacred prayer from the world’s esoteric traditions to illumine your body, commune more deeply with the Divine and help birth
heaven on Earth.
We live in very privileged times, where all of the world’s great spiritual traditions and practices are now available at our fingertips.
If you’re like many spiritual seekers in the West, you may have been drawn to explore the popular, Eastern techniques of meditation and yoga and think of them first when you think of “spiritual practice.”
However, such a stance overlooks the profound Western approaches of contemplation and prayer that we have inherited – practices that can liberate you in ways meditation and yoga may not.
The reason you may not take prayer as seriously as a spiritual discipline is that very few people have ever been taught how to pray, let alone shown the deeper esoteric science and transformative power of evolutionary prayer.
Perhaps you haven’t yet been initiated into the power of prayer by real masters, much less learned the full range of prayer technologies that are available to you.
If you’ve been raised in a Judeo-Christian faith, you have most likely been guided to pray in a “petitionary” way – to ask God for some type of favor. You may have been taught to pray for “forgiveness,” or maybe to ask God to help you with a spiritual problem or earthly desire.
But have you ever really learned how to pray? We mean, in a way that transforms your consciousness and elevates you into a higher, more transcendent state of being? That opens a real, daily intimacy with God – something you can feel, savor and rely on during the inevitable challenges of life?
Prayer is, more than anything, a deep dialogue with the Divine, much as you would establish a relationship with a lover; it’s about a progressive meeting on deeper and deeper levels of communion, which can bring great ecstasy, peace, love and a profound power to bless and heal the world.
So many people have “thrown the baby out with the bathwater” in their dismissal of prayer as a deeply transformative spiritual practice. This is one of the great spiritual tragedies of our times.
Because of this, the radical, illuminating power of prayer may very well be the most common, but least understood, spiritual practice in the world today.
Transforming Through Evolutionary Prayer
One reason that many cultures underestimate and underuse prayer is because most of the time we are simply praying for ourselves. When we truly glimpse the magnificence and splendor that is revealed to us through evolutionary prayer, our souls are ignited in a wholly new way.
The evolutionary technology of prayer, when done correctly, not only speeds up your own growth, but also accelerates the awakening of the Divine within humanity – helping us to bring more of heaven back down to Earth.
It opens an incarnational journey in which you are manifesting more divine presence in your thoughts, words and deeds.
At its essence, prayer is speaking to God – nakedly, shamelessly – from the depths of your heart. When you really start to experience prayer in this way, you’ll become overwhelmed by the incredible joy and empowerment of this divine relationship – of being deeply and passionately loved and attended to.
With evolutionary prayer, you have a simple and profound way to connect with your divine nature… with your Beloved. And once you discover this true intimacy, your life will gradually be transformed to a higher, more resplendent state – one of sacred union.
Even though many esoteric practices of prayer have been quietly protected by saints and holy ones for millennia, the planetary crisis that we now face necessitates that all who are ready must learn them – not only for ourselves, but for the sake of our world.
Prayer is actually one of our most powerful tools for personal and planetary change, IF we wield it well.
Fortunately, there is a very gifted teacher that has been called to reveal the transformational secrets of prayer, and in doing so, is blazing a trail back into the sacred heart of the mysteries hidden within the depths of the world’s mystical traditions.
That man is the renowned mystic-scholar-activist, Andrew Harvey.
You may know Andrew as the prolific author of over 30 books and spiritual classics, including The Essential Mystics, The Son of Man and The Heart of Yoga – but if you haven’t read his work or heard him speak, prepare to be amazed.
Andrew is one of the world’s leading sacred scholars, as well one of the most inspired and illuminating speakers on the subject of esoteric spirituality and mysticism. He’s also one of the most popular Shift Network teachers with his profound teachings on The Christ Path and The Way of Passion.
Andrew believes that the world is at a precipice, and it is time to reclaim our most potent and effective spiritual technologies to avert our crises, and transfigure ourselves and our world.
He knows that the ancient technology of prayer holds the essential keys for our individual healing and collective awakening, and he’s dedicated to bringing its depths and wonders to you so you can incarnate more of the Divine.
A Full Spectrum of Prayer Practices
In Andrew’s view, it’s time for the world to embrace a full spectrum understanding of prayer – one that includes all dimensions of this powerful technology for birthing your divinity.
Prayer is not one-dimensional. There are a wide variety of ways to pray – from mantric prayers to prayers of silence, from “dangerous” prayer that offers deep surrender to God, to prayers of protection. Each has its liberating power to offer, so you can cultivate a full “prayer toolkit” that helps you navigate your daily life with greater centeredness, calm, love, stillness, passion and wisdom.
Through prayer, Andrew shows that you can discover the Christ Consciousness within you, and within all things – and to thus, embody the divine human… literally marrying heaven with Earth. That is the real solution to the struggles of our times.
Andrew’s teachings are not just for Christians, though, for he has been a deep scholar of many traditions. His teaching of prayer is appropriate for Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, pagans, the “spiritual-but-not-religious”… really anyone who is on a path of growth, transformation and service. He will be sharing prayer practices from Hinduism, Buddhism and Sufism as well as those from Abrahamic faiths.
This is why we are so excited to offer this groundbreaking 14-module course with Andrew Harvey, entitled Igniting the Flame of Prayer. To the best of our knowledge, it’s the first time that a truly global, liberating, mystical, in-depth approach to prayer has been made available as a virtual course.
During this transformational training, you will dive deep into the esoteric mysteries of prayer and the mystical pioneers who have taught us how to harness its power to embody more divinity in our daily lives.
You’ll emerge with a far more powerful, nourishing, liberating and radically intimate, prayer practice that sustains you, day by day.
If you’re ready to rediscover the profound beauty and transformative potential hidden within the daily practice of prayer – this training was designed for you.
A Powerful Initiation into Your Divine Nature
Igniting the Flame of Prayer is more of an initiation or a rite of passage than a typical online course.
During the 14-module journey, Andrew will illuminate many myths about prayer, and challenge cherished assumptions about religion in general. He’ll bring forward truths about radical embodiment, relationship and the birth of the truly Divine Child in you.
Andrew is a wild and and often provocative truth-teller who is willing to rattle the cages of limiting beliefs you may have, and call you into profound service. His passion can become a gateway to your freedom as he calls you beyond your current blocks and concerns.
If you’re fixated on bliss alone, or escapism, or any form of fundamentalism – this course is definitely not for you.
However, if you are on a spiritual path with an open heart and mind, and are looking for a more embodied, real and full-spectrum teaching to awaken your full divinity – then this course is perfect for you. It will resurrect your relationship with the transformative power of prayer, and show you how to integrate it into your daily life.
Over this 14-module virtual intensive, Andrew will guide you through the core fundamentals and practices to awaken and embody your divine nature… amidst the pressures and challenges of your daily life.
Each class will begin with teaching and prayer transmissions from Andrew, and then leads into live, intimate spiritual mentorship – with Andrew addressing your challenges, responding to questions and opening his heart-wisdom to speak into your deepest yearnings. He will allow his “soul-knowing” to speak and move through him in service to your awakening, as well as share how he has passed through many mystical gates with the practices you’ll be learning.
In Sufi lineages, this is called “sohbet” – the meeting of student and teacher in a kind of holy communion of naked truth-telling and ecstatic surrender. Every lineage recognizes the power when “two or more gather” in worship, and thus, this immersion with Andrew will offer a sacred meeting between sincere and committed seekers who want the full initiation into the Divine that these prayer practices bring.
This immersion will take you to depths of spiritual wisdom that you barely knew existed, as well as bring you into heartfelt communion with the teachings and practices of some of history’s great saints, sages and seers.
In the Igniting the Flame of Prayer training, you’ll:
- Learn the essential tools to accelerate the divinization process, and experience a clear vision of how the evolution into divine humanity unfolds.
- Reconnect with the heart-centered teachings of the greatest mystics in history, and understand how to act in alignment with sacred love and wisdom in the world.
- Engage in prayer practices of heart, mind and body that you can apply each day so that divine love and wisdom act through you to transform the world.
- Gain a powerful practice of evolutionary prayer that can sustain you, liberate you and ultimately divinize you.
We feel blessed to offer this groundbreaking 14-module course as a liberating, mystical approach to prayer – all made available to you in your home. You’ll emerge with a far more advanced, powerful, nourishing, liberating, and radically-intimate, prayer practice that sustains you, day-by-day.

Module 8: Taking the Next
Evolutionary Leap
Bringing the Sacred Presence into Our Cells
(Recorded February 26)
Andrew believes we are on a precipice as a planet, choosing between a dark descent into ever-more destructive cycles of greed, or into a more luminous future in which we create a wholly new level of divine embodiment. As we do this, we can become catalysts for the creation of a generous, just and caring world. To make this leap, we need to release our addiction to transcendence, and open to the kind of radical, divine embodiment that will suffuse the heart, mind and being with greater intelligence. This is what many think of as the “Christed Self.”

Module 10: Growing the Golden Body
Activating the Divine Mother in Your Cells (Recorded March 19)
In this module, we will focus on the esoteric science of activating Shakti in your cells – the “Mother Force” – in a way that leads to the growing of what mystics call your “Golden Body.” This body represents a higher expression of your normal physical body, and advanced prayer practices will literally baptize you into this body.You will:

This module prepares you to focus, funnel and embody your loving compassion as a sacred activist – particularly focusing on the Tibetan practice of Tonglen, in which you use your heart to compassionately transmute negative, dark and destructive energies. The force of unbound compassion is, according to Andrew, the strongest force in the universe. As you integrate this force in a deeper way, you will become wiser, calmer and steadier – more awake to the powers given to the divine human for working directly in partnership with God in addressing very dangerous realities.
You’ll learn:
- How Tonglen works with the force of unbounded compassion, so that you don’t have to confront the horror directly, but work on the alchemical forces that make up the situ
