The Twelve Blessings in other languages
In a prayer class from 1964 Master of Yoga Dr. George King was giving feedback on the way some attenders were saying prayers from The Twelve Blessings. A German man had trouble pronouncing some of the words correctly, and asked if he could say the prayer in German instead. Dr. King replied:
“…the prayer is still a prayer whether it’s in any language you might want to put it in—it’s still just as powerful you know. But if you can pronounce German better than you can pronounce English, then it would be more powerful in German for you, because it’ll still be the same prayer…”
