Jack Kornfield: My Simple Prayer

My Simple Prayer


My simple prayer is that in all things I learn to love well.

That I learn to touch the ever-changing

seasons of life with a great heart of compassion.

That I live with the peace and justice

I wish for all earth.

That I learn to care fully and let go gracefully.

That I enjoy the abundance of the earth

and return to it from the natural generosity

that is our human birthright.

That through my own life,

through joy and sorrow,

in thought, work, and deed

bring benefit and blessings to all that lives.

That my heart and the hearts of all beings

learn to be free.


Jack Kornfield
