Energy

Traditionally, "Gods" were power sources to connect with people during prayer; the person contacted the power source to cause something.  These were "Nature gods" and by contacting them the person could influence the weather, earthquakes, solar flares, wild fires, animals, people or Time/Events.  

Then someone decided to simplify this process by worshiping only "one god."  He used all the attributes or names of the other gods and applied them to the one god, or Aton.  The Aton was a form of the Sun as seen in the clouds, with rays emanating from it like hands bestowing life onto the people.  

Other cultures later came up with a different model, which was based on Astronomy and Astrology.  The gods were connected to Scientific ideas, as if only that.  Prior to this, all the gods had separate stories and doctrines.  This unification led to modern concepts that are wrong.  The ideas from this process is the hallmark of modern Atheism.  Atheism or Psychiatry try to disprove the existence of gods with the stories people wrote about the gods, as found in the Bible or Quran or other story based books.  Psychiatry tries to prove the founders of these modern religions were "crazy" by using modern ideas that they created.  Both try to sway people away from studying the subject; both are competition.  

As a modern Kheri-Heb Priest, based on the original Ancient Egyptian model, I employ the names of the gods as words-of-power, and the process of action is Chronokinesis, the ability to influence Time or the Future.  This was well known in ancient times.  The god names are actually the end result.  Ra means "sunlight" and the Sun god Ra.  When worshiped, the result is sunlight.  Amun means "air" or "wind"; when prayed to the result is windy weather.  The meanings are found in their attributes.  I use the names in spells cast by a spell book; this is Chronokinesis in written form. 

Prayer is not a religious invention. Prayer is a form of telepathy and Chronokinetic Energy or willpower, depending on the person's genetic structure. Genetic Mutations, like having an extra chromosome, is evidence for advanced psychic skills or abilities as found in human evolution. 
 
        Some people are born with abilities [from Genes] and others can develop abilities from experimenting with magical processes.  When you send information to someone (not necessarily a deity) you are using Telepathy.  The ancient source that was safe for sending information was the Sun.  Otherwise your brain is bombarded with ideas if you are the target of prayer.  If people pray to each other, as with distance healing, instead of a deity or other target, then they can realize what this is.  I noticed this activity in public gathering sites like ML Baseball Stadiums, where people are praying or willing their team to win... I used this activity for the MLB Giants in the World Series in 2010 and 2012.  They won both titles.  I was at home watching it on television while "jinxing the game," on live TV.  Interjecting words like "strike out", "base hit", and "home run" directed at the players.  The same was applied to slot machines in Nevada Casinos (prior to manually fixing the machines to lose on purpose, as done by the management of the casinos); anything with random effects or "chance" seems to work.
