- May the Spirit of Silence open our hearts to Gods transforming love;
- May the Spirit of Compassion help us to feel for the sufferings of others;
- May the Spirit of Love melt the cold hearts of those who trample on human rights;
- May the Spirit of Beauty teach us to treasure Mother Earth;
- May the Spirit of Wisdom help us to learn from spiritual teachers of every faith;
- May the Spirit of Patience and Endurance strengthen the oppressed and those who are
- exiled from their homes;
- May the Spirit of Courage strengthen those who speak for those whose voice is never
- heard;
- May the Spirit of Non-violence bring healing, peace and justice to those who live in
- countries torn apart by conflict;
- May the Spirit of Unity help us to welcome people of every country and creed as
- brothers and sisters.
