Worldwide interfaith prayer call for Australia

Buddhist monk Rev Kelsang Pagpa writes:

Currently there are out-of-control fires in four States of Australia. Human and animals lives are at risk - with both human and many animal fatalities already. They need a miracle to bring on the rain.

The power of people praying together is very powerful. Whatever faith or spiritual belief you connect to, enlist the Grace of this to come to Australia's aid.

You are invited to partake in a three minute prayer/intention where we collectively see/feel/hear: A massive gathering of monsoon rain, falling on the affected areas lasting for days. Gentle consistent rain, soaking into the land, all fires are put out. See/feel/hear the people celebrating, full of joy and gratitude. All animals too are grateful!

Collectively praying together at the same time, has a much more powerful effect than when we pray individually. Please feel free to post this invitation to any friends or groups in your community.
