The first prayer came to me from Dr.Emoto. It ‘s is a ho’oponopono prayer. Ho’oponopono means to make things right.
“I send the energy of love and gratitude to the water and all living creatures in the Gulf of Mexico and it’s surroundings. T the whales, dolphins, pelicans, shellfish, planton , coral, algae and all living creates I am sorry Please forgive me. Thank you . I love you. “
This above prayer is a derivation of a prayer I learn directly from I’Haleakala Len, which may also be of great benefit.
It is simple and effective:
I’m sorry please forgive me for anything that is in me that has created this situation.
We are all depended upon oil in small ways and each of us is responsible for this event in the gulf. I say this not to place blame on your shoulders but to demonstrate the cause-effect relationships that are alive in each of our lives.
If we pray we can make a BIG difference. These prayers are simple and I hope that you will take a moment out of your day to say these prayers.
SIOUX PRAYER REQUEST

Sioux Prayer Request for Gulf Coast Oil Spill –
****** A Great Urgency ******
To All Nations
My Relatives,
Time has come to speak to the hearts of our Nations and their Leaders. I ask you this from the bottom of my heart, to come together from the Spirit of your Nations in prayer.
We, from the heart of Turtle Island, have a great message for the World; we are guided to speak from all the White Animals showing Their sacred color, which have been signs for us to pray for the sacred life of all things. As I am sending this message to you, many Animal Nations are being threatened, those that swim, those that crawl, those that fly, and the plant Nations, eventually all will be affect from the oil disaster in the Gulf
The dangers we are faced with at this time are not of spirit. The catastrophe that has happened with the oil spill which looks like the bleeding of Grandmother Earth, is made by human mistakes, mistakes that we cannot afford to continue to make.
I asked, as Spiritual Leaders, that we join together, united in prayer with the whole of our Global Communities. My concern is these serious issues will continue to worsen, as a domino effect that our Ancestors have warned us of in their Prophecies.
I know in my heart there are millions of people that feel our united prayers for the sake of our Grandmother Earth are long overdue. I believe we as Spiritual people must gather ourselves and focus our thoughts and prayers to allow the healing of the many wounds that
have been inflicted on the Earth. As we honor the Cycle of Life, let us call for Prayer circles globally to assist in healing Grandmother Earth (our Unc’I Maka).
We ask for prayers that the oil spill, this bleeding, will stop. That the winds stay calm to assist in the work. Pray for the people to be guided in repairing this mistake, and that we may also seek to live in harmony, as we make the choice to change the destructive path we are on.
As we pray, we will fully understand that we are all connected. And that what we create can have lasting effects on all life.
So let us unite spiritually, All Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer. Along with this immediate effort, I also ask to please remember June 21st, World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites day. Whether it is a natural site, a temple, a church, a synagogue or just your own sacred space, let us make a prayer for all life, for good decision making by our Nations, for our children’s future and well-being, and the generations to come.
