Meditation 26 Februrary, 18h30

Meditating on Peace

What I found especially moving these past few days when closely following the news from Africa and the Mideast was that when the peoples of Libya and Bahrain discovered they were cut off from cell service and the internet, they had just one plea, that we remember them in our thoughts and prayers.  That we support their non-violent movement for peace and that we understand their desire and quest for a full life of freedom.  And, as in the victorious movements of Egypt and Tunisia that we recognize every human need to feel honor, in every aspect of life, to have one's needs acknowledged and one's need to be a contributing member of our society on this earth fulfilled.  That life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are inalienable rights to all the citizenry of the world.  The ancients described this as fullness or 

purna.

We are living and witnessing a very dramatic and exciting time.  I am humbled by the bravery of those who are fighting for their freedom and am in deep appreciation to all who have dedicated their insights and access to education to bring those less fortunate in touch with each other, that it is easier for us now to reach out to those in darkness than ever before.  Not only do all these ingredients come together to create peace they create purna.

Available from the NYT on line is a picture of a young Libyan boy with eyes glowing with the light of awakening, as he salutes the camera in a looted military uniform.

Thoughts and intentions sent out, matter.  They also send out matter.

This is our yogic prayer to him and his fellow countrymen.

We are all united.

May auspiciousness be unto all.

May peace be unto all.

May fulness be unto all.

May prosperity be unto all.
