" " Amma advises us to practice chanting the peace mantra followed by the universal prayer for peace at-least once a day. As Amma's children, each satsang group, family or individual, might like to participate in a small daily ceremony, praying for every heart in need around the world. * Light a candle at 7:00 pm (Pacific Standard Time) every evening. * Sit comfortably and close your eyes, chanting, " Om Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu " which means, " May all beings in all the worlds be peaceful and happy " . * Continue chanting for 10 minutes. * Remain with your eyes closed and imagine the light of the candle as the Divine Light. Imagine the light pervading the whole universe. As the light falls on each being, visualize that they attain peace and become filled with Divine Love. Picture the whole universe filled with peace and love. See yourself as part of that universe, bathed in Divine Love and Light. * At the end of the prayer, chant " Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi " which means, " Peace, Peace, Peace.
