Tuning_The_World.jpg.jpegMay the people on this planet be transformed.
Transformed from hatred to love,
Transformed from greed to giving,
Transformed from selfishness to selflessness,
Transformed from apathy to action,
Transformed from jealousy to joy over someone's accomplishments,
Transformed from intolerance to acceptance,
Transformed from being destructive to being constructive,
Transformed from fighting to peace,
Transformed from killing to protecting life,
Transformed from censorship to freedom,
Transformed from ignorance to education,
Transformed from fearing our differences to rejoicing abundantly.

May we each take it upon ourselves to feed the hungry, cure the sick,
house the homeless, educate the illiterate, love the unloved,
compete to do justice instead of winning at any cost,
make heros that teach our children to
make the world a better place instead of glorifying violence and war,
stand up and speak out against incidents that are lawfully wrong
instead of sitting back and waiting for someone else,
demand honesty from our governments,
demand honesty from ourselves.

May we each take responsibility for our own actions
and realise that by refusing to change ourselves,
we condone all the evils in the world.
If one person changes they teach others by example,
who in turn change and teach more,
one person becomes as a pebble rolling down a mountain,
picking up more pebbles as it continues,
becoming an avalanche of change.
It can happen, it must happen, it will happen.

To make this prayer work, you have to transform yourself.
