“I vow to illuminate the light of wisdom as a lamp in the darkness,
the light of compassion as a bridge crossing the flood,
and the light of loving-kindness as a healing medicine.
I vow to inspire the light of peace as a resting place for the weary,
the light of sustenance as a guide on the path,
and the light of joy as a tree of miracles.
I vow to continually serve in the awakening of humanity
from suffering to the infinite and eternal Truth
of the light within us all.“
June 2018; inspired by my heritage in Christ Jesus from the Holy BIble
and the Bodhisattva Prayer for All Humanity (also known as, the Dalai Lama’s prayer)
