Surely you do not confuse a prayer to Mary or a saint with anything like that?

Is Mary Omnipresent like God? No?

Then to pray to her (a form of communication), you must summon her, unless you physically approach her.

I leave the rest as an exercise for the reader.

“Summon” = “A call by an authority to appear, come or do something.” A magician claims to have (a limited) power over a spirit or demon.
