Oh Great Creator
Whose voice I hear in the wind and running waters Whose beauty I see in flowers and the setting sun Whose breath I feel in all living creatures Whose warmth I sense in the heart of my children Myself, my parents and their parents before them. Hear my thankful prayers Thankful for the nature that keeps me alive Thankful for the teachings of all your prophets Thankful for the order of your universe Thankful for the knowledge of all your creation That allows me to see beyond what can't be seen. Oh Great Creator Give me the wisdom to see my insignificant Give me the wisdom to realize the fragility of existence Give me the wisdom to comprehend the balance of nature Give me the wisdom to discern right from wrong So that I can add to your blessings and not take away from them. Oh Great Creator Guide me toward that which is the right path Guide me to know my limits Guide me to not harm all things that I can see and not see Guide me to rise above my ignorance And see that all mankind are my kin That without them I am nothing My very existence meaningless. I pray so when I come before you My hands and heart will be clean And I can stand tall and without shame. Amen. Reza Ghadimi From the book: Practicing from the Heart in the Age of Technology
