A Hit of PositiVibes - A Meditation






A
Daily Meditation



Lord,
make me an instrument of thy peace.

Where there is hatred, let me sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope;

Where there is darkness, light;

Where their is sadness, joy;


O divine
Master, grant that I may not so much seek

To be consoled as to console,

To be understood as to understand,

To be loved as to love;

For it is in giving that we receive;

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;

It is in dying [to self] that we are born to eternal life.


Prayer
of Saint Francis of Assisi

From
Eknath Easwaran's very excellent book Meditation:
Commonsense Directions for an Uncommon Life
(Nilgiri Press)...
