Invocation

Toward the One, 
The Perfection of Love, 
Harmony and Beauty, the Only Being, 
united with all the illuminated souls, 
who form the embodiment of the Master 
The Spirit of Guidance. 

Saum

Praise be to Thee, Most Supreme God, 
Omnipotent, Omnipresent, All-pervading, the Only Being. 
Take us in Thy Parental Arms, raise us from the denseness of the earth, 
Thy Beauty do we worship, to Thee do we give willing surrender. 
Most Merciful and Compassionate God, the Idealized Lord of the whole humanity, 
Thee only do we worship, and towards Thee Alone do we aspire. 
Open our hearts towards Thy Beauty, illuminate our souls with Divine Light, 
O Thou, the Perfection of Love, Harmony and Beauty, 
All-powerful Creator, Sustainer, Judge and Forgiver of our shortcomings, 
Lord God of the East and of the West, 
of the worlds above and below, 
and of the seen and unseen beings. 
Pour upon us Thy Love and Thy Light, 
give sustenance to our bodies, hearts and souls, 
use us for the purpose that Thy Wisdom chooseth, 
and guide us on the path of Thine Own Goodness. 
Draw us closer to Thee every moment of our life, 
until in us be reflected Thy Grace, Thy Glory, Thy Wisdom, Thy Joy and Thy Peace. Amen 

Pir-O-Murshid Inayat Khan -- A Prayer of the Gayatri 


"May the Message of God reach far and wide".

- Recited eleven times. 


Pir

Inspirer of my mind, consoler of my heart, healer of my spirit, 
Thy presence lifteth me from earth to heaven, Thy words flow as the sacred river, 
Thy thought riseth as a divine spring, Thy tender feelings awaken sympathy in my heart. 
Beloved Teacher, thy very being is forgiveness. 
The clouds of doubt and fear are scattered by thy piercing glance, 
All ignorance vanishes in thy illuminating presence; 
A new hope is born in my heart by breathing thy peaceful atmosphere. 
O inspiring Guide through life's puzzling ways, In thee I feel abundance of blessing. Amen
