" Salat

Most gracious Lord, Master, Messiah, and Savior of
humanity,
We greet Thee with all humility.
Thou art the First Cause and the Last Effect, the Divine Light
and the Spirit of Guidance, Alpha and Omega.
Thy Light is in all forms, Thy Love in all beings: in a loving
mother, in a kind father, in an innocent child, in a helpful
friend, in an inspiring teacher.
Allow us to recognize Thee in all Thy holy names and forms:
as Rama, as Krishna, as Shiva, as Buddha.
Let us know Thee as Abraham, as Solomon, as Zarathustra, as
Moses, as Jesus, as Muhammad, and in many other names
and forms, known and unknown to the world.
We adore Thy past; Thy presence deeply enlighteneth our
being, and we look for Thy blessing in the future. O
Messenger, Christ, Nabi, the Rasul of God!
Thou Whose heart constantly reacheth upward, Thou comest
on earth with a message, as a dove from above when
Dharma decayeth, and speakest the Word that is put into
Thy mouth, as the light filleth the crescent moon.
Let the star of the Divine Light shining in Thy heart be
reflected in the hearts of Thy devotees.
May the Message of God reach far and wide, illuminating and
making the whole humanity as one single Brotherhood in
the Fatherhood of God.

Amen. "
