Henry Corbin Quote

Prayer is the highest form, the supreme act of the Creative Imagination.... For prayer is not a request for something: it is the expression of a mode of being, a means of existing and of causing to exist,... The organ of Prayer is the heart, the psychospiritual organ, with its concentration of energy, its himma.... Prayer is a "creator" of vision,....

Creative imagination in the Ṣūfism of Ibn ʻArabī (ed. 1970)
