May there be peace in the higher regions;
May there be peace in the firmament;
May there be peace on earth.
May the waters flow peacefully;
May all the divine powers bring unto us peace.
The supreme Lord is peace.
May we all be in peace, peace, and only peace.
Origin:
The Vedas, the primary texts of Hinduism containing hymns, incantations, and rituals. There are four Vedas: the Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, and Atharva Veda.
Options:
• Pray "May There Be Peace" using a rosary, adding your own personal wishes for peace.
• Recite this as a morning prayer, thinking about one personal way you can walk in peace this day.
• Choose one of the italicized lines, copy it on a small slip of paper, keep it in your pocket, and read it several times as a reminder of where you are sending your energies throughout the day.
