This is the Buddhist Loving Kindness Mantra we recite at our temple. Whenever need be I recite it to myself outloud or silently to myself. It works…..

Loving Kindness Mantra…..

May I be well, happy and free from suffering
May no harm come to me, may I be safe
May I have the courage, wisdom and determination
to meet and overcome inevitable problems and tragedies in life
May I be loving and kind.
IBMC

Mantra for Mom and Dad

Father and Mother
crescent moon smiles
no more fighting
in another phase
enlightened

May I be well, 
happy, peaceful
may I be free from 
harm and suffering
may I always love

I love writing--It's my joy, my therapy--my confession. I'm a performer, dancer, yoga and meditation instructor, write a poetry column for Rafu Shimpo. Growth and love of life is a key to my happiness.
