Exercise with prayer for the world
For this you will need a firm leaf, such as a Laurel or Rhododendron. Write on a piece of paper your vision for the world. When you are ready, write a key word on the leaf to encapsulate your vision or draw a symbol to do so. Hold your leaf between your palms, with your hands in prayer position. Say the following prayer. You can do this aloud or silently. If you are in a group, one person can say it for everyone or all can speak it aloud together.
