Mandala_Prayer For Peace

This post about a Mandala I created in 2012, almost exactly a year ago. "Prayer For Peace" (about 60 hours of concentrated prayer) was fired through my recognition of the tremendous dynamic energies at work in the Middle East. This was the fire behind this prayer in which I attempted to create resolution and harmony out of chaos.

Here we see a fiery Circle of radiant energy encircling the Islamic Crescent, the Jewish Star Of David, the Cristian Cross, and the Solar Cross, which encompasses all the Goddess/Earth-Based religions: symbolically unifying ALL of them in "THE "Holistic Reality" . . . !

If every one involved in these conflicts would find the peace and unconditional love I experienced while I was creating this Mandala, that "War-Mind" would begin to dissolve into "Harmony-Mind". We are all children of the SAME creator! And . . . We Must Collectively Evolve! Namaste . . .
