For All Threatened Beings


Gatha for All Threatened Beings

 Ah Power that swirls us together
 Grant us bliss
 Grant us the great release
 And to all beings
 Vanishing, wounded,
 In trouble on earth, 
We pass on this love
 May their numbers increase

 Gāthā is a Sanskrit term for "song" or "verse." I’m posting this in honor of the Humboldt Interfaith Fellowship event I witnessed online Sunday night, a Zoomed evening on the theme of hope and healing. It was a lovely experience. Although it was presented live on Zoom, you can see the recording of it through the HIF Facebook page.
