Quaker artist Carrie Coco has created simple and luminous artworks and juxtaposed them with quotes from Jesus, Gaelic rune blessings, Martin Luther King Jr., the Koran, Buddha, the Tao Te Ching, and more luminaries, to create a meditation that brings eye and heart directly into the profound, still center of God. In this beautiful little collection of prayers from around the world, words of peace from spiritual leaders and the scriptures of many faith traditions combine with Coco's powerful photomontages to create a unique object, a book not just about peace, or for peace, but a book that radiates . . . dances . . . peace. Prayers of Peace aligns power with light in forms that are at once ancient and new. Peace in our hearts, in our time, begins on the breath of a prayer and in the diversity of words, symbols, objects and images that form a beautiful harmony on these pages. Plant the seeds of peace by giving this book to all in your circle of praying friends.
