PEACE PRAYER Below, you will find a letter Arlo Guthrie sent to his Arlo.net webmaster to distribute to Arlo's cyber fans. It was sent out September 18, 2001...By the Way, in Hebrew Qabbalistic tradition 18 is a number associated with LIFE...charitable contributions are often made in multiples of 18. Sounds like a great idea to me. Let us dedicate ourselves to a world in Peace. In times such as this fall, it may seem - for all the world - that we hardly have a choice...the path to war is narrow, and for thousands of years, people have (The following is stated hyperbolically...) fought each other in order to stand in line to purchase a lottery ticket for a chance to be selected to walk it...the path to PEACE is wide, is lined with shade giving trees rich with fruit...still, oft-times seems to be empty...yet there is always, even now, ample room...on the road to Jubilee...won't you join me in my walk? - Jesse Slokum -- Busker for FREEDOM My Friends, Yesterday was a day we will never forget. The images of the attack upon ordinary people will remain with us all of our lives. In her daily prayers this morning, Ma said, "THERE MUST BE PEACE ON EARTH OR THERE WILL BE NO EARTH". She is right. Once again we are reminded that our journeys through life are filled with opportunities to do good or evil. We must learn to know the difference between God's will and man's choice. Our choice must be to love and respect each other no matter that our traditions and cultures are varied and different. Our enemy is clearly before us. Hate, religious intolerance, fear and anger are our foes. We are a people of love, welcoming our global family with open arms. We know no fear - Our hearts are already filled. Just remember who we are and we will be all right. Today, I will remain in prayer with my family and friends from a dozen different religious traditions - We are all in tears.
