Creation of the Universe

For this year’s Global Peace Meditation, Byakko Vice Chairperson Rika Saionji led participants in the reading of a poem entitled Creation of the Universe. With a gentle orchestral melody in the background, Ms. Saionji read the poem once alone (in Japanese), and then participants joined in for a second reading (also in Japanese):

 

Creation of the Universe

When we quiet our mind and pray, we feel the prayers of all living things.

Our prayers become the energy of love and healing, embracing the Earth, humanity, and all living things, and bringing all back to life.

The creation of a new planet Earth begins.

Even when human beings forget to pray, the earth, the seas, the mountains, and all living things go on praying

For the time when humanity will awaken.

 

When we quiet our mind and pray, we feel the prayers of all living things.

Our prayers become light, illuminating the divinity in each and every human being.

At that time, the Earth, humanity, and all living things become one, and a new universe begins.

 

Following this, Byakko Deputy Chairperson Yuka Saionji gave a closing address.
