Circle of Compassion
Circle of Compassion and its project, the Worldwide Prayer Circle for Animals, is a non-denominational circle of people devoted to using action and the power of prayer, meditation, and/or focused thought to liberate all animals from human oppression and exploitation. We believe that, by adding the power of prayer to all the other animal rights work currently being done, this circle of prayers will: •Create an energy field of compassion and caring for all beings of Earth; •hasten the transformation we are seeking for a world at peace; •Strengthen us all for the work ahead; •Elevate global consciousness to the awareness that all life is sacred and interconnected and to the joyful acknowledgement of our kinship with every being; •More intensely awaken within us the ever-loving presence of Divine compassion and mercy. Circle of Compassion honors all traditions -- Our Worldwide Prayer Circle for Animals honors the prayer traditions of all religions and encourages participants to use any form of prayer, meditation, or focused thought that is comfortable. In fact, Circle members who have no particular spiritual beliefs but who believe in the proven power of focused thought are absolutely welcome. There are no requirements to joining the Prayer Circle for Animals other than an interest in helping animals through prayer or focused thought and a willingness to commit to faithfully repeating at least once daily this Prayer for the Animals in a heartfelt mood of thanksgiving for the ongoing manifestation of love and peace on earth. This is our prayer: COMPASSION ENCIRCLES THE EARTH FOR ALL BEINGS EVERYWHERE
