A Jain Prayer
Lead me from death to Life, from falsehood to Truth. Lead me from despair to Hope, from fear to Trust. Lead me from hate to Love, from war to Peace. Let Peace fill our heart, our world, our universe. – Satish Kumar

Prayer for peace on Earth
Pope John Paul II reflected on Blessed John XXIII’s Four Pillars of Peace:
» Truth will build peace if every individual sincerely acknowledges not only his rights, but also his own duties towards others.
» Justice will build peace if in practice everyone respects the rights of others and actually fulfils his duties towards them.
» Love will build peace if people feel the needs of others as their own and share what they have with others.
» Freedom will build peace and make it thrive if, in the choice of the means to that end, people act according to reason and assume responsibility for their own actions.
