Christian prayers specific to the Eastern Orthodox Church and those Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine Rite:

Salah, ritual Islamic prayer, prescribed five times daily:

Besides the five daily prayers, other notable forms of salaah include:

The Vedas are a collection of liturgy (mantras, hymns). Stuti is a general term for devotional literary compositions, but literally means praise.

The Hindu devotional Bhakti movements emphasizes repetitive prayer. Stemming from the universal Soul, or Brahman, prayer is focused on the personal forms of Devas/Devis, such as Vishnu, Vishnu's Avatars, Rama & Krishna, Shiva as well as Shakti, or Shakti's forms such as Lakshmi or Kali. Ganesha is also a popular deity in Bhakti.

Before the process of ritual involving the invoking of various deities for the fulfillment of needs (great/small, varying in urgency), came the human aspiration for the highest truth. The foundational monism of Hinduism pertains to the one Brahman. Brahman, which summarily can be called the unknowable, true, infinite and blissful Divine Ground, is the source & being of all existence from which the Cosmos spring. This is the essence of the Vedic system. The following prayer was part & parcel of all Vedic ceremonies, continuing to be invoked in Hindu temples presently throughout India and the World.
