The purpose of this website is to gather the great prayers written
by the spiritual visionaries of our planet into an online database
representing all life affirming traditions. Many of these prayers
have been used for hundreds if not thousands of years. Others
are from spiritual contemporaries in today's intricate global
fabric. Though these sacred verses arise from divergent paths,
voices, languages, cultures and heritages, they all carry within
them the same burning flame - the same impassioned love for
life and the divine mysteries." There is a special link
on this page created in response to the terrorist attacks of
September 11, 2001. |
