Interfaith Ceremony at the Global Peace Festival | August 19, 2008

On August 9, 2008, 20 world religious leaders offered a Merging of the Sacred Waters ceremony to bless the Global Peace Festival. Many of these leaders are preeminent in their areas, and some took this public step with great courage.

The full report on this ceremony will be forthcoming. Essentially the vision was that each religious tradition represents a part of humanity's greatest treasure. On this day, to mark a new beginning of history in which these treasures are no longer held separately, but given freely and unconditionally to merge into the common heritage of our one family under God, the divine absolute.

Here are some images of this stirring moment (the box on the upper right allows these images to be seen in large format):
