Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has reacted to the terrorist attack on a mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand, which killed 49 people.
“I am a person who prays multiple times every day. I am not a religious man, but I believe in God, and communicate with the Divine. It’s a sacred time when I am shown my highest self, and in my humility I receive the answers I need. It is a time of open heart and yearning.
Today in New Zealand 49 of my fellow humans were praying to God when they were murdered in a terrorist attack. I mourn them profoundly. No matter how many times these atrocities happen it is never less shocking. I only hope that a profound and powerful love can rise up in their place.”
