A Sufi blessing for the New Year

twitter_0509_4It’s been years since I’ve been to a New Year’s Eve party. It never was my thing, and mostly I’m asleep well before midnight.

However, I do enjoy the calmness, the in-breath, that I sense on New Year’s Day.

It’s also true that tomorrow night isn’t everyone’s new year. Yet, because it’s the common calendar we use as a society, it’s useful as a way to mark this movement in time all of us, together.

As you, and your business, continue to move forward in time, and the calendar clicks over, I send a Sufi blessing of peace and protection, success and prosperity, health and happiness to you and yours.

In the Name of the One
Most Compassionate, Most Merciful, Most Kind
I ask in the Name of the One to help us all to know
that our hearts are always cared for
that our every step is guided
that we need do nothing alone.
Help to open the way, to reveal the path,
to make the signs
unmistakable.
I ask for nourishment, and support, in abundance for us all.
I ask that all of those who needs the gifts that we’ve been given,
that they find their way to us
without blocks, or veils, or hesitations.
Make our provision easy.
I ask for love, and healing.
For mercy, and kindness.
For gentleness and peace.
For strength and success.
For life, for justice, for form.
I ask for presence, and light.
And love, and love, and love.
For you, and your loved ones, and your business, in this new year.
