Equalizer

Material goals are wonderful, but not everybody can achieve everything in a material existence - not even those who are endowed with certain values, certain, what shall we say, qualities, because the world is full of wise people, of wise people who have no jobs, for instance. But spirituality is a field which is the ultimate equalizer of all human beings, where any human being, irrespective of sex, race, nationality, religion, can achieve this goal of spiritual endeavour. Therefore, it is not only the great equalizer of humanity, it is also the integrator of humanity, because in a real spiritual pursuit we forget our mutual differences, and therefore it brings about an integration of human beings which has not been possible hitherto on this earth of ours. It is certainly not a dream. It is possible, it has been possible, and it will continue to be possible – provided we co-operate.

Equalizer and Integrator: These are two great effects of a spiritual practice that can bring change to the world. Organizations like SRCM, which provide the Sahaj Marg system of practice are working towards this noble cause to bring peace on earth by spreading the word of Universal Brotherhood.

I understand that the organization SRCM has association with the United Nations, as mentioned in this website: http://www.srcm.org/un/index.jsp

As part of the Sahaj Marg practice, there is the universal prayer for love and brotherhood to grow that is prescribed to be practiced at 9PM.

Universal prayer as a part of the Sahaj Marg practice provided by SRCM is as follows:
"At 9:00 p.m. sharp, every abhyasi, wherever he / she might happen to be at that time, should stop his / her work and meditate for fifteen minutes, thinking that all brothers and sisters are being filled with love and devotion and that real faith is growing stronger in them. It shall be of immense value to them, which only their practical experience shall reveal."
