Used to reference an open and personal interpretation of God/Deity/Nature or any power greater than one's self.
The idea that there are determinants and conditions to life beyond self-control or human-control is a spiritual challenge that can be defeating or liberating. Attributing negative/positive determinants/conditions to something greater than one-self is thought to be liberating and alleviating. Hence, ideas of a Higher Power have formed the basis of all spiritual practices and religions.
The term HP detaches itself from preconceived notions and religious elements. God for example, is mistakenly associated with Christianity on an exclusive basis, this is not a necessary association. Hence HP unambiguously removes this association.

Coming to my own conception of a HP = Higher Power has been an eye opening experience for me, since it helped me understand that I'm not responsible for everything that happens, I'm simply a part of something.

Get the HP = Higher Powermug. When playing guitar hero, the instance sense of regret one feels when activating the star power feature in a song area with little to no notes.

Get the magical fag powersmug. A move by a greedy person or corporation or higher entity to rip you or a consumer off by making them buy or pay an extortionate fee for some bullshit that they didn't want or agreed to sign up for.
1. Joe: Hey Bob did you hear that Bank of America will soon be charging you a monthly fee for having a checkings account?
Bob: Yeah i heard that too on Yahoo, you would think that those cheap bastards would be in fine shape with having just laid off 30,000 workers but i guess the CEO still isn't satisfied with his all time high personal benefits...
Joe: Yeah that is such a Jewish Power Play from those greedy bastards.
