Prayers for World Peace

Service Description

Prayers For World Peace Monthly on First Fridays • 7-8pm • FREE with Kadampa Meditation Teachers "In recent years our knowledge of modern technology has increased considerably, and as a result we have witnessed remarkable material progress, but there has not been a corresponding increase in human happiness. There is no less suffering in the world today, and there are no fewer problems. Indeed, it might be said that there are now more problems and greater dangers than ever before." - Geshe Kelsang Gyatso The pressures of the modern world can sometimes feel impossible to navigate. Balancing work, family, friends, and trying to find hope and meaning in the midst of life’s demands can be challenging. If you find yourself feeling lost and powerless faced with the horrors of war, famine, sickness and the many problems that plague our world, then you may benefit from Prayers for World Peace. You are invited to join us for a short teaching, a guided meditation, and prayers for peace in the world. This is a way to direct spiritual energy toward wishing happiness for all beings, through the process of correct imagination. All things arise from the mind, so if we can create a space where we imagine world peace, then we can make it happen together.
