Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi,


Mother Teresa of Calcutta made it part of the morning prayers of the Roman Catholic religious order she established, the Missionaries of Charity. She attributed importance to it when receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo in 1979 and asked that it be recited.

Margaret Thatcher, who in that same year won the 1979 United Kingdom general election, paraphrased the prayer on the doorstep of 10 Downing Street, surrounded by a throng of reporters, as she set out the aims of her Government after having "kissed hands" with Queen Elizabeth II and become Prime Minister.

Tamil Version

இறைவா!

அமைதியின் தூதுவனாய் என்னைப் பயன்படுத்தும்.
பகையுள்ள இடத்தில் பாசத்தையும்
மனவேதனையுள்ள இடத்தில் மன்னிப்பையும்
ஐயமுள்ள சூழலில் விசுவாசத்தையும்
அவநம்பிகையுள்ள மனத்தில் நம்பிக்கையையும்
இருள்சூழ்ந்த இடத்தில் ஒளியையும்
துயரம் நிறைந்த உள்ளத்தில் மகிழ்ச்சியையும்
வழங்கிட, எனக்கு அருள் புரியும்.


ஓ! தெய்வீக குருவே!!
ஆறுதல் பெறுவதை விட ஆறுதல் அளிக்கவும்
பிறர் என்னைப் புரிந்து கொள்ள விரும்புவதை விட
பிறரைப் புரிந்து கொள்ளவும்
பிறருடைய அன்பை அடைய ஆசிப்பதை விட
பிறருக்கு அன்பை அளிக்கவும்
எனக்கு அருள்வீராக! ஏனெனில்,
கொடுக்கும் பொழுது மிகுதியாகப் பெறுகிறோம்,
மன்னிக்கும் பொழுது, மன்னிப்பை அடைகிறோம்


The English version of the prayer reads as follows:

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon:
where there is doubt, faith ;
where there is despair, hope
where there is darkness, light
where there is sadness, joy
O divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.


the original publication of the prayer was submitted anonymously to the French publication La Clochette in 1912.

Seigneur, faites de moi un instrument de votre paix.
Là où il y a de la haine, que je mette l'amour.
Là où il y a l'offense, que je mette le pardon.
Là où il y a la discorde, que je mette l'union.
Là où il y a l'erreur, que je mette la vérité.
Là où il y a le doute, que je mette la foi.
Là où il y a le désespoir, que je mette l'espérance.
Là où il y a les ténèbres, que je mette votre lumière.
Là où il y a la tristesse, que je mette la joie.

Ô Maître, que je ne cherche pas tant à être consolé qu'à consoler,
à être compris qu'à comprendre,
à être aimé qu'à aimer,
car c'est en donnant qu'on reçoit,
c'est en s'oubliant qu'on trouve, c'est en pardonnant qu'on est pardonné,
c'est en mourant qu'on ressuscite à l'éternelle vie.

The hymn version of Make Me A Channel of Your Peace is an anthem of the Royal British Legion and is usually sung every year at the Service of Remembrance in November at the Royal Albert Hall, London. It goes as follows:

Make me a channel of your peace,
Where there is hatred let me bring your love,
Where there is injury your pardon Lord,
And where there's doubt true faith in you.

Make me a channel of your peace,
Where there's despair in life, let me bring hope,
Where there is darkness, only light,
And where there's sadness, ever joy.

O Master grant that I may never seek,
So much to be consoled as to console,
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
In giving to all men that we receive
And in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Android Development for Beginners

The Android platform is a software stack for mobile devices including an operating system, middleware and key applications. Developers can create applications for the platform using the Android SDK. Applications are written using the Java programming language and run on Dalvik, a custom virtual machine designed for embedded use which runs on top of a Linux kernel.


 An early look at the the Android SDK is also available. It includes sample projects with source code, development tools, an emulator, and of course all the libraries you'll need to build an Android application.


Download the SDK
