New Year Prayer

A Prayer for the Lunar New Year

A new year is coming to the world again.
All things change from old to new.

On the first day of the year,

We wish for:
Harmony in families and happiness in life,
Stability in emotions and dignity in character;
Fulfillment at work and health in body and mind;
Improvement in cultivation and increase in wisdom;
Joy throughout the universe and peace on earth.

In the new year, please grant us:

That every intention we have may be beneficial to all,

That everything we say may be compassionate and encouraging,

That everything we do may be a blessing to others.

We pray for awareness,

allow us to promote the well-being of society,
We pray for inner strength,

Allow us to progress on the way to awakening.

The new energy infuses the new year;
Allow us to start everything anew.
A new spirit infuses the new year;
Allow us to start everything anew.

We wish you all Happy New Year!
