(THE ESSENCE OF PRAYER Children in their formative and most impressionable years can be trained while still young. We can inculcate in them a reverence for our ancient culture, an aspiration to live upto it and a correct understanding of the deeper implications of life. Prayer, it has been found, is the most effective and productive technique of kindling the essential beauty and brilliance inherent in them. Through prayer, we can try to create in children a selfconfidence to serve, generate in them a true affection in all their relationships, inculcate in them personal discipline and a true spirit of leadership. We can hone their ability to express themselves and to assert their individuality. Moreover, the powers of prayer to weed out psychological fears in children still very young, have been proven over the years. This book is a humble attempt at trying to create for our growing children a healthier intellectual and physical climate, where they can grow with nobility- both physical and emotional through the elevating medium of PRAYER. *************************** samasta jana kalyANe nirataM krunnaamym| namAmi cinmayaM devaM sadguruM brhmvidvrm|| ***************************

Help me, Lord, to love Thee more than I ever loved before, In my work and in my play Be Thou with me through the day.

Little words of kindness How they cheer the heart ! What a world of gladness Will a smile impart. Little acts of kindness Richest gems on earth Yet when they are wanting Life's best charm is lost. Little acts of kindness Richest gems on earth Though they seem but trifles Priceless is their worth. 2 God make my life a little light Within the world to glow, A tiny flame that burneth bright Wherever I may go. God make my life a little flower That bringeth joy to all, Content to bloom in native bower Although its place be small. God make my life a little song That comforteth the sad, That helpeth others to be strong And makes the singer glad. 22

The more you give, the more you get The more you laugh, the less you fret -- The more you do unselfishly The more you do abundantly. The more of everything, you share, The more you'll always, have to spare --- The more you love, The more you'll find That life is good And friends are kind.... For only what we give away Enriches us from day to day. Lives of great men all remind us We can make our life sublime, And departing leave behind us, Footprints in the sands of time. Footprints that perhaps another, Sailing o'er life o' solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again. Let us then be up and doing With a heart for any fate, Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labour and to wait. 3

Little drops of water, Little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean, And the pleasant land. Thus the little minutes, Humble though they be, Make the mighty ages Of eternity. Little deeds of kindness Little words of love, Make this Earth an Eden With the Heaven above. God made the earth, He made the sky, God made the fish and birds that fly, Animals, flowers and trees so tall, God made everything great and small. All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all.

Page #26
Keep pushing- 'tis wiser Than sitting aside, And dreaming and sighing, And waiting the tide. In life's earnest battle They only prevail Who daily march forward And never say fail ! In life's rosy morning, In manhood's firm pride, Let this be the motto Your footsteps to guide. In storm and in sunshine Whatever assail, We'll onward and conquer, And never say fail !

Father, we thank Thee for the night, And for the pleasant morning light, For rest and food and loving care, And all that makes the world so fair. Help us to do the things we should, To be to others kind and good, In all we do, in work or play, To grow more loving everyday. Amen. 2 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 them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil. Amen.

Creator of all joy and beauty, we thank Thee this morning for Thy bright world, for the sunshine on the hills, for the mists on the rivers, for bird and beast, mountain, plain and forest, all giving glory to Thee in the radiance of the new dawn. We thank Thee that we may look, as Thou lookest, upon all the beauty of the earth. O Master, lover of beauty and joy, make our hearts simple and trustful, make our wills lowly and pure, that we may share in Thy will, whereby is created and upheld all the joy and the beauty of this, Thy great universe. J. S. Hoyland ** The day returns and brings us back to our round of duties. Help us to play the man, help us to perform our tasks with laughter and kind faces. Let cheerfulness abound with industry. Help us to go blithely on our business all this day. Bring us to our resting beds weary and content and undishonoured, and grant us in the end the gift of sleep. R. L. Stevenson 27

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy purpose. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, forgiveness; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; not so much seek to be understood, as to understand; not so much seek to be loved, as to love. For, it is in giving, that we receive; it is in forgiveness, that we are forgiven. Lord, receive our prayers for our school and our country. Protect the innocent, restrain the greedy and the treacherous, and lead us out of our tribulations into a quiet land. Look down upon ourselves and upon our absent dear ones. Help us and them. Prolong our days in peace and honour. Give us health, food, bright weather, and light hearts. If we plan to do evil, frustrate our will. If we plan to do good, further our endeavours. Cause injuries to be forgotten and kindness to be remembered. Let us lie down at night without fear, so that we awake and arise tomorrow full of strength and joy. 28 St. Francis of Assissi R. L. Stevenson

King of the world, we thank Thee for the beginning of a new day, for the dim twilight, the glowing sunrise, for the new hopes and the new opportunities, for the new consciousness of Thine abiding care. Give us courage and strength for our work today. Give us steadfastness of purpose, patience and humility, and help us to speak the truth. J. S. Hoyland * This is my prayer, my Lord, strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart. Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service. Give me the strength never to disown those who are poor and weak, or bend my knees before insolent might. Give me the strength to raise my mind high above little things and to learn to live with nobility, with courage and with truth, and give me the energy always to work towards my ideals so that in my life I may reveal some glory and wonder that has shone in the lives of the great men of the past. Rabindranath Tagore 29

* No man is an island No man stands alone Each man's joy is joy to me Each man's grief is my own. We need one another So I will defend Each man as my brother Each man as my friend. * There are numerous strings in your lute, Let me add my own among them. Then when you smite your chords, My heart will break its silence, And my heart will be one with your song. Amidst your numberless stars, Let me place my own little lamp. In the dance of your festival of lights, My heart will throb, And my life will be one with your smile. Rabindranath Tagore 30

* O! When the saints Go marching in O! When the saints Go marching in I want to be in that number When the saints go marching in. O! When the drums, begin to beat - 2 I want to be in that number... O! When the stars, come out at night - 2 I want to be in that number... All things bright and beautiful All creatures great and small All things wise and wonderful The Lord God made them all. Each little flower that opens Each little bird that sings He made their glowing colours He made their tiny wings. The purple-headed mountains The river running by The sunset and the morning To brighten up the sky. 31

Abide with me. Fast falls the eventide The darkness deepens Lord with me abide. When other helpers Fail and comforts flee. Help of the helpless O abide with me.

Nothing seems as sweet as His name when chanted with devotion -- not even amrit. Chant the name of the Lord fearlessly. Keep the company of saints and gurus which is always beneficial. Those who take shelter under the Omnicient, Omnipresent, All-pervading Lord - on them shall He shower His blessings. 35
