Hesychastic and contemplative prayer are not supposed to be robotic mouthing of wordsMy opinion is that if you are just mouthing words as a robot without any intellectual activity you would be better off with hesychastic or contemplative prayer. Words in prayer are not fundamentally different from words in general. They are still meant to signify, represent, etc. When I pray the Jesus prayer I think about Jesus.
But since we are not in a 'debate forum' I will not push this further.
And we can move this to the debate forum if you want
