The main difference between begging and begging

There are significant differences between prayer and begging in content, emphasis and emotional color.

1. Content: The content of prayer is often not specific, but expresses a strong desire, such as hoping to get a response from gods, religious beliefs or human beings. In contrast, the content of begging is more specific, which mainly lies in "begging" something from others, such as external interests such as material wealth, status rights, and even basic rights such as life safety.

2. Focus: Begging focuses on asking others to give, focusing on low-key behavior, including certain submission and low emotions. Prayer pays more attention to people's inner mental state, expresses piety, humility and purification to gods, religious beliefs or the common will of human beings, and embodies a way beyond material things, pursuing spiritual growth and sublimation of personality.

3. Emotional color: Begging has certain helplessness and passivity, and often faces the realistic challenge of cynicism or resisting rejection. Prayer, on the other hand, often contains a kind of belief emotion of "dedication, gratitude and piety", which embodies an expression of reverence and awe, the supreme reverence and awe of human beings for gods, and the pursuit of the meaning of life and spiritual satisfaction.

Generally speaking, although both prayer and begging express human's entreaties and demands for some kind of energy, there are significant differences in specific content, emphasis and emotional color.
