Today at 8:55 AM
Dear Brave Souls: I've just received news there was a huge 7.9 earthquake in the spiritual land of of Nepal, that the people near Kathmandu in particular, but also outlying settlements, are in need of our prayers. Many have died and many are still being recovered and many families and friends can not yet find each other, a terrible panic of heart and soul.
Many historic buildings have fallen down. Climbers on Everest say huge avalanches were unleashed and threatened lives entirely. In earthquakes from post-trauma on site, we know there will be many crushing injuries. Let us pray that all are found soon and alive and can be helped in every way.
Please join me in your own way of sending healing energy and strengthening fibers for the Nepalis to hold onto, across the world to the souls in need, that they be calmed and receive aid as quickly as possible, that they be comforted, and their children and families and friends and animals find each other very very soon.
I created this prayer hand writ here at my desk just now, and I will place it here for you in case you would like to 'think it' as prayer across the world to Nepal also-- in case you would like to pray it too... or whichever prayers you feel called to...in whichever way. Intention is the entire point of prayer. Please join me in your own blessed way.
Prayer Flags Across the Sky
For Those in Need
We send to you
memory of Balance in all things,
even when everything
seems to have tilted
out of balance
for now.
We send the five silk prayer flags
flying across the world to you,
flying to every single person in need:
the flags, representing
our strongest prayers for
the calming of all the elements
both outside yourself
and inside your dearest self...
--the blue silk flag
we are sending through the sky to you,
for calming
of the sky and space
anywhere within or around you
and your loved ones.
--the white silk flag
we are sending through the sky to you,
for calming
of the air and the wind
anywhere within or around you
and your loved ones.
--the red silk flag
we are sending through the sky to you,
for calming
of all flame and fire
anywhere within or around you
and your loved ones.
--the green silk flag
we are sending through the sky to you
for calming
of all wet and water
anywhere within or around you
and your loved ones.
.
--the yellow silk flag
we are sending through the sky to you,
for calming
of all vital energies of the earth--
anywhere within or around you
and your loved ones.
We send across the sky
the soft silk
of the prayer flags,
for you to string
across the mountains
of your hearts...
that our prayers
protect you,
shelter and warm you,
reassure and calm you--
and that you be found
if you are missing,
that you be tended to
in effective ways
if you are in need,
that you be restored
to health and harmony
We lend you
our spirits' energy
to add to yours,
to help you
pull all the five
holy elements
back to calm
and peace again
-- for there is your strength
and there is our strength also:
for in mayhem or in harmony
we are all One.
May it be so
that you are helped and healed
and all those you love.
May it be so right now.
that you and they
be restored
in every way.
May it ever be so for you,
for all your loved ones,
and for us all.
Please lean on our prayers,
-- and our prayer flags sent
across the sky for you...
and with love,
Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes
