WIHW 2025 - Living Wisdom:  Meditations and Practices for a Compassionate Life

 Registration is closed for this event
The World Interfaith Harmony Week provides a platform—one week in a year—when all interfaith groups and other groups of goodwill can show the world what a powerful movement they are. The thousands of events organized by these groups often go unnoticed not only by the general public, but also by other groups themselves. This week will allow for these groups to become aware of each other and strengthen the movement by building ties and avoiding duplicating each other’s efforts. It is hoped that this initiative will provide a focal point from which all people of goodwill can recognize that the common values they hold far outweigh the differences they have and thus provide a strong dosage of peace and harmony to their communities.

The Charter for Compassion offering for the World Interfaith Harmony Week 2025 is part of the RISE (Religion, Interfaith and Spirituality on Earth) Sector activities.

This unique 14-day workshop encompasses faith traditions from different religions and cultures. Using prayers, chants, meditations and visualizations, to awaken Love and Peace, and Compassion within the Hearts, the inspired presenters will offer insights and practices to purify and heal our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energy fields.

Each daily session lasting an hour may include breath work, chanting, meditation, art work and spiritual exercises.

Our intention is to awaken our higher consciousness so that we may connect to the other through the heart, and be of authentic service to our common humanity and all of creation. Here are the themes for each day:
