Guy Spiro's Lightworks.com, based in Chicago, Illinois, has been championing another approach for world peace. Called the Light Wave, you send light energy by yourself or in a group with others.

"The LightWave gathers people from all walks of life, religious backgrounds, and philosophical perspectives, to come together and generate light daily for the transformation of our world. This can be done through prayer, meditation, drumming, dancing, yoga, or any other light creating activity. It can be done alone or in groups.

A Worldwide Circle of Prayer

Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF), founded by Paramahansa Yogananda, holds a Worldwide Prayer Circle every week with hundreds of thousands of members around the world, open to all.

Each week, people gather at SRF temples and centers, but many also gather in their homes for private prayer services for healing. The Prayer Circle members gather to pray for healing: healing of the body, mind, soul ignorance, and of course world healing for world peace and harmony. Yogananda often stated that the highest service one could do was to pray for humanity.

Paramahansa Yogananda taught that true prayer is scientific — being based on precise laws that govern all creation — and is a daily necessity for harmonious living. He explained that our physical bodies and the material world we live in are condensations of invisible patterns of energy. That energy in turn is an expression of finer blueprints of thought — the subtlest vibration — which governs all manifestations of energy and matter.
