Praying for Peace on Friday 11-9

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Beyond the Sidewalks : One Thread

I got this message from a list sponsored by a healing sanctuary in the area. ********* On 11/9 sages from the Amazon, Africa, the Andes, Tibet, and around the world will be "Praying Peace". 'Praying Peace' is an act of love and power where we manifest peace on the Earth and within ourselves. Join us on 11/9 to undo the darkness unleashed on 9/11, and envision the world we want our children to inherit.

If you can't be there in person, please join us in spirit, by lighting a candle or building a sacred fire. Sit with loved ones and pray to our ancestors for assistance. Open sacred space by calling on the four directions, heaven and earth. You can use the invocation below or any other you like.

Invocation by Alberto Villoldo

To the winds of the South Great Serpent, help us to shed the past the way you shed your skin. Teach us to walk with beauty and touch everyone with beauty.

To the winds of the West Great Jaguar, walk among us. Show us how to live fearlessly. Teach us the way of no enemies in this world or the next.

To the winds of the North Hummingbird, grandmothers and grandfathers, ancient ones. Teach us the way of stewardship, that we may serve the time to come.

To the winds of the East Mother Eagle. Fly high above us. Keep us under your wing. Teach us the way of vision and nurturing our young.

Mother Earth, Great Mother. Thank you for your breath and your waters. To the stone people, the plant people, The winged, the furred the finned and the feathered. All our relations.

Father Sky, grandmother moon, to all the sacred mountains of the Earth Great Spirit, you who are know by a thousand names, yet who are the unnamable One. Bless us in our journeys. Bring healing to our Earth.
