Health is the proper relationship the microcosm, which is man

and the macrocosm, which is the universe. Disease is a disruption of this relationship. Dr. Yeshe Donden, Physician to the Dalai Lama

Lord’s Prayer

Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed Be Thy Name
Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread 
And forgive us our errors as we forgive those who trespass against us
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom, the glory and the power forever and ever... Amen
Luke 11: 2-4


Inspired Translation


Our Creator who dwells within us 
Your Holy Name dwells in all beings and in all of creation
Your holy dwelling place is here now
Earth is your Heavenly Home, reflecting you in all ways
May your will for healing, peace and joy be reflected in us

Remind me always of the illusion of separation from anyone or anything, most importantly myself
Thank you for this day you have given us where all is freely given
Let us always remember we are cared for day-to-day, on-going and forever
Help us see the Divinity in all beings and awaken our mind to our Shared Presence
That we may receive and offer forgiveness for the error of our ways

Lead us out of the temptation of holding ourselves or others hostage in relations debt, real or imagined
Lead us out of the temptation of fearing and judging those who are different
Guide us away from our tendencies to divide over race, religion, gender, economic status or sexual orientation
For we know Your Kingdom is not divided, nor does it divide

May we demonstrate Sacred Unity as you do, holding sacred our covenants with Earth
May we care for all beings with love and kindness, thereby creating peace on Earth
For Life is the glory, the beauty and the power forever and ever. Amen.

Note by author: This prayer was given to me in May of 2013. I was spending the weekend up Sundance Canyon reading a spiritual text. In my head, I began hearing this prayer Jesus offered and in my heart I felt a question emerge. “What was Jesus feeling? What was he hearing? What was he really saying?” As I felt that question arise, this inspired translation poured out of me. I just took out my pen and wrote down the first, second and final paragraphs. The 3rd paragraph came bit later as I was meditating on this prayer. The vibration of this prayer is a tuning device, attuning us to the wisdom, love and compassion capable of healing all things.
