Ok, you guys know that our culture is pervasive with images of Christ. Even in the evangelical community the Bible story books, movies, magazines etc carry a plethora of these artists rendition of what Christ looked like. Now unconsciously I was conditioned to believe that Christ actually looked like that. So after being converted when I pray I automatically will imagine that image while praying. i.e I would actually pray to the figment.

Now I understand that that is gross idolatry, and I want to get out of it.

For those who overcame this problem, how did you do it? How can I simply blank my mind of images while praying?
