If you find something written that helps you to pray, why not repeat it on a regular basis? Say you find the poet Rilke to help you to pray. Why then look for other poets? Keep with Rilke. It is about prayer aids. Many people pray the psalms from the Bible on a daily basis. Monks do this. Keeping at what works opens up to deeper layers of the words and deeper layers in ourself. Trying to find something “even better” is a bit of an ego trip or spiritual gluttony.
