Prayer for the United
Nations
May the peace and the blessings of the Holy Ones
pour forth over the worlds, and rest upon the United Nations, on the
work and the workers, protecting, purifying, energizing and
strengthening.
There is a Peace which passes understanding. It
abides in the hearts of those who live in the Eternal.
There is a Power that makes all things new. It lives
and moves in all those who know the self as One.
May the rhythm of that Peace vibrate within the
United Nations and in the heart of every worker.
May the rhythm of that creative Power resound within
the United Nations, and in the lives of all who serve there—awakening,
transmuting, and giving birth to that which ought to be.
May the chalice that the United Nations is building
become a focal point for the descent of spiritual force, filling it and
overflowing to the world, and drawing towards itself all those whose work
lies there.
May the consciousness of the United Nations become
ever more at-one, and the many lights become One Light.
May the aspiration and the dedication of the United
Nations burn as a clear flame in the service of humanity.
May the Love and the Light and the Life of the One
Life pour through the United Nations, cleansing it from all evil and
attracting all good.

International Day of Peace
Wednesday, Sept. 21
You can take part in a global vigil of meditation and prayer in support of
peace.
Every year the United
Nations calls upon people of goodwill and organisations to observe this
International Day with activities dedicated to the creation of a culture
of peace, and to a day of global cease-fire and non-violence.
To
support this special day on a spiritual level, a group of organizations
representing a wide variety of religious and spiritual traditions has
encouraged local groups and individuals to hold a 24 hour Vigil in houses
of worship and places of spiritual practice:
-
Begin precisely
on the quarter hour by using the Great Invocation, or the world prayer
'May Peace Prevail on Earth', or an invocation or prayer of your choice
oriented towards world peace.
-
Link in thought
with the others who are linking at the same precise time as you and then
with everyone in the world who is participating in the International Day
of Peace Vigil (remember there will be countless people in churches,
mosques, temples and sacred sites taking part in the Vigil);
-
Reflect
on the
meaning of a Culture of Peace;
-
Visualize the
lighted, loving energies that can create the mental and emotional
understanding and atmosphere within which peace can flourish in
ourselves, our communities, our nations, and our world
