to Amarnath about link; to Ammachi Family about prayer

[Guest guest]

Dear Amarnath ~ I had already heard the other one, and loved it, and this

one is wonderful. I have been collecting wonderful links from YouTube for Shiva,

Krishna, Ganesha, Saraswati, Durga, Laksmi and others.

In some I am totally taken aback by the way people are putting the bhajans,

which are so beautiful, together with the evolving imagery. It truly seems

magical. I love it! Jai Mata Ma ~ Linda

Now I have one for anyone who is intersted. I found this while combing

through Amma's website looking for gems of wisdom as well as what I might do to

help with the farmers who are committing suicide. Amma has quite a program

going for them and the families left behind. I was stunned to read that, in

some cases, the farmers are first poisoning their children. But we can help,

according to our capacities. And prayer is certainly one of those ways. The

following text is from the MA Center website:

 

Amma advises us to practice chanting the peace mantra followed by the

universal prayer for peace at-least once a day. As Amma's children, each satsang

group, family or individual, might like to participate in a small daily

ceremony, praying for every heart in need around the world.

* Light a candle at 7:00 pm (Pacific Standard Time) every evening.

* Sit comfortably and close your eyes, chanting, " Om Lokah Samastah

Sukino Bhavantu "

which means, " May all beings in all the worlds be peaceful and happy " .

* Continue chanting for 10 minutes.

* Remain with your eyes closed and imagine the light of the candle as

the Divine Light. Imagine the light pervading the whole universe. As the light

falls on each being, visualize that they attain peace and become filled with

Divine Love. Picture the whole universe filled with peace and love. See

yourself as part of that universe, bathed in Divine Love and Light.

* At the end of the prayer, chant " Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi " which

means, " Peace, Peace, Peace. "

" Children, pray for the good of everyone, " Amma urges. " We should pray to God

to give a pure mind even to those who harm us. One cannot sleep peacefully

when there is a thief in the neighborhood. Likewise, when we pray for the

well-being of others, it is we who gain peace and quietude. "
