Everything affects everything.

You are connected with all living things. That connection is not merely an academic description; it is a true statement. Everything you do, everything you say, everything that you think has an effect beyond yourself. It is for this reason that religions have been founded upon the concept of corporate prayer. It is not just motivated by political or monetary necessity in the history of religions. It is a fact. There is much you can do on your own. There is a great deal you can do to provide an environment for health, an environment for peace, an environment for justice when you pray together.
