Washington, May 9: Hindu priest Pandit Harish Brahmbhatt joined the National Day of Prayer Service in Rose Garden on Thursday at the invitation of President Donald Trump. The priest recited a Vedic prayer ‘Shanti Path’ at the event that took place on May 7. “In these troubled times of COVID-19, social distancing and the lockdown, it’s not unusual for people to feel anxious or not at peace.  The Shanti Path or the peace prayer, is a prayer that does not seek worldly riches, success, fame, nor is it a prayer for any desire for heaven.  It is a beautiful Hindu prayer for peace, shanti. It is a Vedic prayer derived from the Yajur Veda,” Brahmbhatt said in his brief remarks from the Rose Garden podium. This prayer was specially chosen due to the overarching theme that in all circumstances we should always pray for peace above all things. President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence offered their prayers followed by prayers from religious leaders representing four of the major faith traditions – Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism and Islam.
