Prayer Circle for Animals Weekly Update from Judy Carman
January 11, 2016

Our prayers for all animals continue to circle the earth, to uplift humanity's consciousness, and to bless the animals themselves. Thank you for joining people around the world who are praying this prayer in many different languages but all with the same love:

"COMPASSION ENCIRCLES THE EARTH FOR ALL BEINGS EVERYWHERE"

Greetings of love and gratitude from Judy Carman

Those Three Beautiful Words—“Circle of Compassion.”  On January 14, we celebrate the birthday of Albert Schweitzer.  Although his main focus was on aiding people, he was among the early pioneers who boldly spoke out for the rights of animals.  He and Einstein both used the phrase “circle of compassion” and his plea was that our species would include all beings in that circle.  As he said,
"We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals. Animals suffer as much as we do. True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them. It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace."
Will, Madeleine and I adopted the phrase and vision for circleofcompassion.org, as well as for our worldwide prayer--“Compassion encircles the earth for all beings ev erywhere”--that is now being spoken daily by hundreds of people around the world.  The power of this focused vision cannot be underestimated, and it carries us and the animals along with it whenever a glad heart speaks it with love and gratitude and faith.
For this Week’s Prayer, in Honor of Schweitzer, in Honor of His Reverence for Life, let us each embrace our Circle of Compassion prayer and vision as never before. Let us know beyond any doubt that this grand circle of compassion is growing ever wider right now.  In the loving arms of this vegan, ahimsa world that we are dreaming into being, we say—May all beings share this deep knowing—Compassion is encircling this beautiful earth for all beings everywhere—bringing freedom, joy, family, and love to all precious life.      

As always, with tears of gratitude, I send my thanks to each of you, dear Prayer Circle members, for joining this circle of compassion and shining the Light of Truth for all to see, so that one day soon, all beings will live in peace together.

May compassion and love reign over all the earth for all beings everywhere. 
Thank you all for your devotion to truth, love, liberation and peace for all beings.
With Love, peace, and gratitude from Judy Carman, and greetings from Will, Madeleine, Tara and the Circle of Compassion team
