ok ill try!!

Thank-you so much for posting this chant. i'll give it a try.

But i need to know…where i live doesnt have fireflies, so do you think that will effect that? what would be the perfect time for me to do it? hope this doesnt sound like a silly question-!!

Thanks again, Bek <3 xx

Blue Eyes,
I didnt see your chant until now- but last night I went outside to admire the fireflies blinking all over the farm fields. It was sooo beautiful!!!

I remarked out loud that the fireflies were better than man's fireworks.  Earlier that day my nephew was playing with firecrackers on the sidewalk near there.

While I said a prayer for God to help the wild animals , coral reefs and all creation from man-made disasters,  and then I kissed Mother Earth and touched her gently to help her feel comforted from all She is going through, I looked up at the Maple tree above me, and noticed that there was this really bright white light about the size of my thumb and bigger/brighter than the fireflies  resting on the upper limbs of the Maple tree.     After I looked up and finished my prayers,  it flew off the branch and dissappeared.  It was not blinking at all and was much brighter than the fireflies.

The next morning I went outside to get the newspapers and I said my greetings to the faerykind and trees.   While walking on the sidewalk I heard a fire cracker go off in our yard, but I dont know where it came from!  

I hadnt stepped on any firecracker and the noise was coming from some yards away from me—   as though someone invisible made one go off for fun–    maybe to go along with my comment the other night when I said out loud that the fireflies were like Earth's Fireworks!

1 WE seeking strength with Soma-drops fill full your Indra like a well,
Most liberal, Lord of Hundred Powers,
2 Who lets a hundred of the pure, a thousand of the milk-blent draughts
Flow, even as down a depth, to him;
3 When for the strong, the rapturous joy he in this manner hath made room
Within his belly, like the sea.
4 This is thine own. Thou drawest near, as turns a pigeon to his mate:
Thou carest too for this our prayer.
5 O Hero, Lord of Bounties, praised in hymns, may power and joyfulness
Be his who sings the laud to thee.
6 Lord of a Hundred Powers, stand up to lend us succour in this fight
In others too let us agree.
7 In every need, in every fray we call as friends to succour us
Indra the mightiest of all.
8 If he will hear us let him come with succour of a thousand kinds,
And all that strengthens, to our call.
9 I call him mighty to resist, the Hero of our ancient home,
Thee whom my sire invoked of old.
10 We pray to thee, O much-invoked, rich in all precious gifts, O Friend,
Kind God to those who sing thy praise.
11 O Soma-drinker, Thunder-armed, Friend of our lovely-featured dames
And of our Soma-drinking friends.
12 Thus, Soma-drinker, may it be; thus, Friend, who wieldest thunder, act
To aid each wish as we desire.
13 With Indra splendid feasts be ours, rich in all strengthening things wherewith,
Wealthy in food, we may rejoice.
14 Like thee, thyself, the singers' Friend, thou movest, as it were, besought,
Bold One, the axle of the car.
15 That, Śatakratu, thou to grace and please thy praisers, as it were,
Stirrest the axle with thy strength.
16 With champing, neighing loudly-snorting horses Indra hath ever won himself great treasures
A car of gold hath he whose deeds are wondrous received from us, and let us too receive it.
17 Come, Aśvins, with enduring strength wealthy in horses and in kine,
And gold, O ye of wondrous deeds.
18 Your chariot yoked for both alike, immortal, ye of mighty acts,
Travels, O Aśvins, in the sea.
19 High on the forehead of the Bull one chariot wheel ye ever keep,
The other round the sky revolves.
20 What mortal, O immortal Dawn, enjoyeth thee? Where lovest thou?
To whom, O radiant, dost thou go?
21 For we have had thee in our thoughts whether anear or far away,
Red-hued and like a dappled mare.
22 Hither, O Daughter of the Sky, come thou with these thy strengthenings,
And send thou riches down to us.
