Prayer for world peace

A prayer for universal harmony and peace. We seek divine blessing to live together in mutual understanding, tolerance, and respect for all cultures and traditions. We ask for forgiveness and to be led from darkness to light. The prayer emphasizes that the divine is the true doer, not us, and calls for health and harmony to prevail across the entire earth and universe. The speaker invites others to join in a Sanskrit chant for this purpose, concluding with thanks for participation in a multicultural gathering for world peace.

"Lead us from darkness to light, from unreality to reality, from mortality to immortality."

"May good health, peace, and harmony prevail on this earth."

Your Holinesses, Your Excellencies, dear brothers and sisters, good evening. Salutations to the cosmic light, the Lord of our heart, omniscient and omnipresent. Under His divine blessing and protection, may we all live together in harmony, with mutual understanding, tolerance, and respect, and with understanding and love towards every culture, tradition, religion, and nation. May we humans live together with mutual understanding and peace. Merciful Lord, forgive our sins and bless us with peace and harmony. We are not the doer; You are the doer. You are the only doer. Lead us from darkness to light, from unreality to reality, from mortality to immortality. May good health, peace, and harmony prevail on this earth. Merciful Lord, we pray to Thee to grant harmony throughout the entire universe. Now I will pray in Sanskrit. And if you know, dear brothers and sisters, you can chant with me. If you know the prayer, brothers and sisters, then you are welcome to sing with me. Saṅkalaṁ bhavatu, niṣavatu, namastā, bhavatā, abhudeva kartā, mahābhudeva tahike, kāmyaja mahe, sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam; May God bless the whole world. Dear brothers and sisters, thank you for coming to participate here in this multicultural program for world peace. And I thank you, Your Holinesses and Your Excellencies, for coming to pray with us. Thank you.
