Prayers
May the suffering from which destructive behavior arises be understood and liberated.
May we never again ignore its existence in our country and in our minds.
May we redirect the energy toward a more civil and inclusive conversation.
May we tear down the silos of our insulated judgments and be kind to everyone.
May all beings have happiness and the cause of happiness.
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering.
May they never be separated from the perfect happiness of no suffering.
May they remain in boundless equanimity, free from attachment and aversion to those close and distant.

Much love,
🙏🏼 Michael
