Members and friends of the DMLBonn CC gathered in Bonn on January 20, 2022 for a Sufi meditation and peace prayer on the occasion of the World Interfaith Harmony Week.
They shared prayers, recitations, songs and stillness for peace on all levels: interior peace, world peace, peace, justice and healing in the communities, families, countries, as well as prayers for all life and the Earth.
As the week starts on Sunday in the Abrahamic traditions, and the day starts on the evening, participants agreed with a smile that it made perfect sense to begin, as they were doing, World Interfaith Harmony Week, which is designated as the first week in February, on this Saturday night, the eve of the beginning week.
This “circle of remembrance” was part of a weekend of exchange, working together, enjoying each other’s' company, planning and spiritual practice.
Unfortunately, this work is still limited by the pandemic, which makes it difficult to come together face-to-face. Hopefully, the situation will become better soon, so that meetings are again possible with greater ease.
