1) As a kind of prayer for Creation in the spirit of the Rosh Hashanah liturgy that hopes for the time when “all creatures become united in one band” to serve God.
2) As an alternative ḳaddish to do at any point in the service where people might get benefit from something that they can read in English. As such this is not a replacement for kaddish but it might work as one of several ḳaddishes that get said in a service.

[Everyone:] Amen. May that great Name be blessed within us | |
[Mourners:] May Holiness stream forth from its Source, May the Name that weaves all Life And let us say: ([Everyone:] Amen.) | |
[Mourners:] May the Life and Love May the Breath And let us say: ([Everyone:] Amen.) | |
[Mourners:] The One who makes Peace And let us say: ([Everyone:] Amen.) |

- If you must dispose of a printed sacred text (one containing Divine Names), please locate the closest genizah (often established by a synagogue) and contact its custodians for further instructions. We also recommend using Morah Yehudis Fishman's Prayer for Adding a Work to the Genizah.
