“The only condition of life is making one’s own nature.”

Rockets are flying between Tel Aviv and Gaza. Apartment buildings are thundering to the ground. Parents and children cannot find each other. The grief is immeasurable.

As this crisis worsens on a daily basis Pir Zia has invited us to pray for all those in harm’s way, intoning Amaan (which means Sanctuary) 101, 301, or 501 times each day. 

“Our task is to remember the harmony of the prophets in the heavens, to work for the harmony of all people on Earth, and to seek every opportunity to realize peace and justice in the world. Every life is incalculably sacred.”  Pir Zia Inayat Khan
