O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Universal Love Aspiration
Through the working of Great Compassion in their hearts, May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness, May all be free from sorrow and the causes of sorrow; May all never be separated from the sacred happiness, which is sorrowless; And may all live in equanimity, Without too much attachment and too much aversion; and live believing in the equality of all that lives. Namo Amida Buddha |

| Lord's Prayer
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13 |
Hindu Prayer for Peace
Oh God, lead us from the unreal to the Real. Oh God, lead us from darkness to light. Oh God, lead us from death to immortality. Shanti, Shanti, Shanti unto all. Oh Lord God almighty, may there be peace in celestial regions. May there be peace on Earth. May the waters be appeasing. May herbs be wholesome, and may trees plants bring peace to all. May all beneficent beings bring peace to us. May thy Vedic Law propogate peace all through the world. May all things be a source of peace to us. And may thy peace itself, bestow peace on all and may that peace come to me also. |

| SEAX-WICCAN PSLAM (by Raymond Buckland)
Ever as I pass through the wyas do I feel the presence of the Gods. I know that in aught I do they are with me. They abide in me and I in them, forever. No evil shall be entertained for purity is the dweller within me and about me. For the good I do I strive and for good do I live. Love unto all things. So be it, Forever. |

| Hear me, four quarters of the world-- a relative I am! Give me the strength to walk the soft earth. Give me the eyes to see and the strength to understand, that I may be like you. With your power only can I face the winds. Great Spirit...all over the earth the faces of living things are all alike. With tenderness have these come up out of the ground. Look upon these faces of children without number and with children in their arms, that they may face the winds and walk the good road to the day of quiet. This is my prayer' hear me!
