[Houston] Master's
call to action awakened us from our initial shock over the World Trade
Center and Pentagon tragedies, and helped us to focus on what we could
do to improve the physical, mental, and spiritual state of the victims.
Although
we are over a thousand miles from the tragedy, our hearts reached out
to all the innocent victims of the disaster through group prayer-meditation
session that were held each night during the week of September11. In
addition, we allocated US$5,000 from the Houston Center's account to
use for disaster relief. Finally, we heard on the news that much blood
will be needed in the near future and we strongly encouraged all capable
initiates to sign up to donate blood in an effort to save lives.
We will
continue to monitor this situation closely and if there is anything
we can do to help uplift the physical, mental, and spiritual state of
the victims we will do it without question. We all pray that this tragic
incident helps to unite the people of the world and brings peace in
the near future.
[Hawaii]
Hawaii Center initiates sent a check for $1,000
to the Bank of America to assist in the September 11 disaster relief
efforts. Besides, the Hawaii Center will remain open indefinitely for
prayer and group meditation sessions for world peace. We are also encouraging
our friends and families to ask others to please pray for all the victims,
and their families and loved ones.
[Los
Angeles] On the weekend of September
15 and 16, 2001, hundreds of fellow initiates from the Los Angeles Center
gathered for a two-day prayer and meditation retreat to benefit the
victims of the September 11 attacks in New York City and Arlington,
Virginia, and their families, and to promote peace for the whole of
humankind. Master's blessing power was strongly felt as initiates remained
serious in tone but strong in their belief in Her infinite love and
compassion, which has the power to melt the hatred and conflicts among
people.
Several
disciples from the Los Angeles area volunteered to go to help with the
relief work being carried out in New York and Virginia by disciples
from centers in the eastern U. S. In addition, a number of Los Angeles
Center initiates opened up their homes and businesses for extended group
meditation sessions throughout the week for an indefinite period, to
help uplift the consciousness of the Earth's population and promote
greater harmony among humans.
A
total of US$20,000 was contributed by Los Angeles Center disciples to
assist in alleviating the suffering of the disaster victims and their
families. We hope and pray that God will grant Heirs infinite grace
to humanity in its future pursuit of peace and freedom, through loving
and compassionate means.
