It would seem that many prayers and meditations have been answered in the recent news of Warren Buffett, and Melinda and Bill Gates combining their billions of dollars for the benefit of humanity.

Let's continue efforts in meditating for world peace and add to that the goal of world health. By helping a great number of people health-wise we raise the standard of living for humanity as a whole - making the world a better home and haven for all.

Prayer for World Health

"May we see the benefits of helping the poor
And helping those sick to better health
That they may become productive.

May we be inspired to help those in need
As we may have been helped in our need in the past
To reach the health and strength we have now.

May the great charity of a few
Spread to charity of many
For brothers and sisters of the world we are.

May blessings of charity
Extend hand to hand
Ringing around our world, one land."

Meditation for World Health

Sit in your favorite quiet spot, close your eyes and begin even regular breathing, such as 2 counts to breathe in; 2 counts to breathe out; 2 counts to breathe in and continue on.

Begin visualizing our world full of healthy people, with clean air to breathe and enough nutritious food.

See children running and playing and learning. See teens growing and learning to share and give.

See adults working and sharing and giving so all the world lives as a big helping family of earth as we are.

Take a deep breath and repeat this short meditation when you have a few quiet minutes. It calms and balances body and mind, and adds positive thoughts to our world.
