World Peace and Prayer Day 2014
Tax deductible
World Peace and Prayer Day, also known as Honoring Sacred Sites Day, was envisioned and brought forth by Chief Looking Horse as a day to join worldwide communities and people of all races, ages, genders, and faiths, who share concern for the welfare of the Earth and humanity. This endeavor is committed to "All Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer" uniting in order to bring about healing to our mother Earth on behalf of future generations by working together. It is highlighted by honoring-ceremonies, invocation, and prayer observed in collaboration with indigenous and religious representatives. Special guest speakers and wisdom keepers of all denominations share spiritual insight and discuss important environmental concerns and cures on both a local and global level. This profoundly auspicious time is elevated by a cross-cultural celebration of music, dance, and storytelling. All free of charge.
Chief Arvol Looking Horse is the 19th Generation Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Pipe Bundle and recognized spiritual leader of the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota Sioux Nations. Following the birth of a White Buffalo Calf in 1994, Arvol Looking Horse was directed to honor the Four Directions with ceremony on Summer Solstice on June 21st. According to Lakota Star Knowledge, the birth of "Miracle," a female white buffalo, signaled a time of Earth changes and the coming of The Mending of the Hoop of all Nations. The Summer Solstice is said to be a powerful time to pray for peace and harmony among all Living Beings. Grandmother Earth's gifts: the air, water, plant, animal, and rock nations must be allowed to heal if we are to live in harmony with Her.
This year's event emphasizes two initiatives, a Call to Action based on the Council Statement on Fukushima, and the Sacred Sites Draft Resolution, which many peace workers are working to see adopted by the United Nations.
In keeping with solutions-based thinking, the WPPD 2014 event will include opportunities to learn about sustainable living models such as permaculture and wilderness skills and ways for all ages to become reconnected with the Earth.
Representing the horse nation, Blue Star Equiculture will lead a sacred horse ride from their home base in Palmer, Massachusetts to the World Peace and Prayer Day site in Wappingers Falls, NY. Blue Star Equiculture is committed to sustainable equine husbandry.
