BLESSING OF MEALS
In most religious Traditions, in various ways, the meal is preceded by a prayer. In Aumism, the blessing of meals expresses the unity of each person with nourishing Nature and with human beings, especially those in need. It is an opportunity to spread thoughts of love for the whole of Creation and to wish everyone happiness in all its aspects, culminating in spiritual Liberation. It is a reminder that food gives us strength to be placed at the service of humanity.
We share here, with those who wish, “A prayer for the Blessing of meals”, taken from L’Aumisme, la Doctrine de l’Age d’Or, p. 223:
OM OM OM
“May Love, Peace, Happiness, Prosperity, Health, Protection and Bliss be for all beings in all directions of space: to the north, east, south, west, zenith and nadir.
May the blessing be upon all the elements, all the elementals of earth, water, air, fire and ether.
May the blessing spread over all plants, all animals and all human beings.
May the blessing spread over the whole earth and the whole universe.
May all who are hungry and thirsty be satisfied,
May abundance and prosperity be for all,
May all beings attain the condition of the liberated in the COSMIC CHRIST, the condition of DARPANA BUDDHAS.
Let us give thanks to the celestial Powers for blessing the food we are about to take, so that we may serve better.”
OM OM OM
May Love, Peace and Harmony reign among all people.
OM SHANTI SHANTI SHANTI
OM PEACE PEACE PEACE
