                                 PRAYER

  Mr. Rajan Zed, Universal Society of Hinduism, Reno, Nevada, offered 
the following prayer:
  We meditate on the transcendental glory of the deity supreme, who is 
inside the heart of the Earth, inside the life of the sky, and inside 
the soul of the heaven. May He stimulate and illuminate our minds.
  Lead us from the unreal to the real; from darkness to light; from 
death to immortality.
  Fulfill all your duties; action is better than inaction. Selfish 
action imprisons the world. Act selflessly, without any thought of 
personal profit. Strive constantly to serve the welfare of the world; 
by devotion to selfless work, one attains the supreme goal of life.
  May we become united with the all-powerful and all-knowing Lord, who 
dwells in the hearts of all, is the supreme goal of life and infinite 
peace and love. Lord, be kind to us with Your invisible form, lead us 
to eternal joy, fill our hearts with unending peace, and free us from 
all bondage. Abandon us not.
