Need your feedback on the renewed "Our Father" Prayer

Posted on Jun 13th, 2008 by

Hello Gaia Community: today I woke up with the need to send this message. I was raised as a Christian-Catholic, nevertheless my experience in this maya/reality has made me impartial to support one sole religion, and taking the best out of each one in this current existence.

Yesterday I was at church celebrating the first anniversary of my mother's passing away. When we started reciting the "Our Father" prayer, it came to mind that we could make it a better and more accurate prayer. The original prayer is as follows:

Our Father, Who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy Name;

Thy kingdom come;

Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us;

and lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen

A few ideas came to mind, and I restructured it the following way:

Our Father, Who art omnipresent

hallowed be Thy Name;

Thy Kingdom is in us

Thy will be done everywhere

Give us everyday our bread of life for our body and spirit/soul/oversoul/?

Liberate our heart from resentments

Show us the way into the truth

And deliver us from ignorance

Amen

I would very much appreciate any feedback on this.

Thanks for your support.

Namaste,

Ramon

I like this Ramon. The first line is a bit tough on the tongue for a prayer I say in the morning though. I'd go with spirit since it is very broad.
