Ways to Remember
A Blessing for Peace
Journey of Hearts

Although not the original blessing that was used at the service (we used one that was a blessing for the healers) this blessing is one that easily could have been used at a Remembrance service, a blessing of peace for all living beings, "visible or not visible, near or far away, already born or yet to be born" a blessing for anyone who is living, has yet to live or to die.  
 
A Blessing for Peace
 
May everyone be happy and safe,
and may their hearts be filled with joy.
May all living beings live in Security and in Peace--
Beings who are frail or strong, 
Tall or short, big or small, 
Visible or not visible, near or far away, 
Already born or yet to be born.
May all of them dwell in perfect tranquility.
Let no one do harm to anyone. 
Let no one put the life of anyone in danger.
Let no one, out of anger or ill will,
wish anyone any harm.
