Apne Gyaan ko Baatna
Neill F. Marriott dwara
Jawaan Mahilaaon Maha Adhyakshta ki Dusri Salaahakaar
Hume apne vishwaas mein atal rehna chahiye aur apne awaaz ko sachche siddhaant ke liye uthana chahiye.
Aajraat main un do zaroori zimmedarion ke vishye mein baat karungi jo humare paas hai. Pehla, humare jiwan mein humesha susamachaar ke gyaan aur sachchaai ko bharna, aur dusra, us gyaan aur sachchaai ko dusron ke saath baatna.
Kya tumhe pata hai ki tum kitne zaroori ho? Tum sab- abhi hi- Swargy Pita ke mukti ke yogna mein keemti aur khaas ho.Humare paas kaam hai karne ko. Hum punaharsthaapit susamachaar ke sachchaai ko jaantein hain.Kya hum us sachchaai ko raksha karne ke liye taeyaar hai? Hume ussi mein jeena hai; hume use baatna hai. Hume apne vishwaas mein atal rehna chahiye aur apne awaaz ko sachche siddhaant ke liye prakat karna chahiye.
September 2014 ke Ensignaur Liahona mein, Elder M. Russell Ballard ne likha: “Hume mahilaaon ki khaas prabhaao aur vishwaas ki zaroorat hai. Hume zaroori hai ki weh siddhaanton ko sikhein aur samjhein jo hum vishwaas kartein hain taaki weh sab baaton ki sachchaai ko apne gawaahi mein bayaan karein.”1
Bahanon, tum mere vishwaas ko Ishu Maseeh mein mazboot karti ho. Maine tumhare uddhaaranon ko dekha hai, tumhare gawahi ko sunna hai, aur duniya bhar Brazil se Botswana tak ke mahilaaon ki vishwaas ko mehsoos kiya hai! Tumhare paas chamta hai apne ird-gird ke logon ko prabhaawit karne ka jaha bhi tum jaao. Yah tumhare ird-gird ke logon ne mahesoos kiya hai- tumhare parivaar se lekar tumhare cell fone ke logon tak aur tumhare doston se samaajik madhyam tak se lekar aaj raat tumhare saath baete tak. Main Bahan Harriet Uchtdorf ke saath santusht hoon, jisne likhi, “Tum … is buraai se ubharte duniya mein shakti aur utsuk ki uddhaaran ho jo tum diklaati ho, jis tarah se tum apne jiwan ko bitaati ho, ki susamachaar ka sandesh khushi se bhara hai.”2
Pradhaan Thomas S. Monson ne spasht kiya ki, “Agar tum kisi aur ke saath gyaan ko baatna chahate ho, tumhare paas wah gyaan pehle hona chahiye.”3 Hum kis tarah us sachchaai ke gyaan ki roshni ko humesha khud mein jalaaye rakh saktein hain? Kabhi kabhi mujhe mehsoos hota hai ki main apne sachchaai ke gyaan ko badha nahi aur kam baatti hoon. Kis tarah hum apne sachchaai ke gyaan ko puri tarah badha aur baat saktein hain?
Susamachaar sikhlaate hai ki, “Jo Parmeshwar se aata hai wah roshni hai; aur jo roshni ko prapt karta hai, aur Parmeshwar ke saath ho jaata hai, aur zyaad roshni ko prapt karta hai.”4 Hume Parmeshwar ke piche humesha chalna chahiye, jaesa susamachaar mein likha hai. Hume roshni ke jadh tak jaana chahiye- Swarg ke Pita aur Ishu Maseeh aur dharamshaastra tak. Hum mandir bhi ja saktein hain, jaante hue ki waha hone waale sabhi cheez Maseeh aur Uske mahaan praeschit ke balidaan ki oar pahuchata hai.
Mandir ke dwara uske ird-gird par pade prabhaao ko socho. Weh sharon ko sundar karti hai; weh mahaan pahaad par chamakti hai. Weh kyo sundarta pradaan karti aur chamakti hai? Kyunki, dharamshaastra kahata hai ki sachchaai chamakti hai,”5aur mandir mein sachchaai aur anant kaarye hota hai; tum bhi karte ho.
1877 mein, Pradhaan George Q. Cannon ne kaha, “Sabhi Mandir … dharti par Shaitaan ki shakti ko kam kar deta hai.”6 Main vishwaas karti hoon ki jaha kahi bhi dharti par mandir banta hai, wah buraai ko mita deta hai. Mandir ka kaarye hai ki insaan ki sewa kare aur Swarg ke Pita ke sabhi bachchon ko Uske paas waapis lautne aur jine ki chamta dein. Kya humare kaarye bhi in samarpit imaaraton ki tarah nahi hai, Prabhu ke in gharon ki tarah? Dusron ki sewa aur madad karna unke buraai ko dur karne ke liye aur Swarg ke Pita ke roshni tak waapis jaane mein?
Mandir ke pavitra kaarye Maseeh mein humare vishwaas ko aur zyaada badha sakta hai, aur phir hum dusron ke vishwaas ko achchie tarah se prabhaawit kar saktein hain. Mandir ke poshan karte aatma dwara, hum sachchaai, shakti, aur apne jiwan mein Uddhaarkarta ke Praeshchit ki aasha ko sikh saktein hain.
Kai saal pehle humare parivaar ne ek ghambheer chunaoti ko jhela tha. Main mandir gayi aur vishwaas ke saath madad ke liye prarthna kiya. Mujhe sachchaai ki chan prapt hua. Mujhe saaf taur par apni kami dikhlaai diya, aur main aschariye mein padh gayi. Us dhaarmik sikhne waale chan mein, maine apneaap ko apne khud ke tarike se kaarye ko karte hue dekha, Prabhu ke tarike se alag, aur kaarye ke liye khud ki prasansha kari. Main jaan gayi ki main apneaap ko dekh rahi thi. Maine apne hriday mein Swarg ke Pita se prarthna kiya, aur kaha, “main wah mahila nahi hona chahati, par main kis tarah badal sakti hoon?”
Mandir mein sachche mukti ke aatma dwara, mujhe khud ke liye Muktidata ki bahut zaroorat thi. Main turant hi apne khayalon mein Uddhaarkarta Ishu Maseeh ki oar mudi aur apne ghamand ko pighaltey hue dekha aur apne hriday mein ek mahaan asha ko bhartey hue. Wah hi sirf meri ek asha thi, aur main sirf Uske piche chali. Yah mere liye saaf ho gaya tha ki ek mahila jo sirf apne bare mein sochti swaabhawik mahila “Parmeshwar ki shatru hoti hai”7aur apne prabhaao daalne waale logon ko bhi. Us din mandir mein maine sikha tha sirf Ishu Maseeh ke Praeshchit ke dwara ki meri ghamand ka bartaao badal sakta hai aur main achchie kaarye kar sakungi. Maine Uske prem ke shakti ko maehsoos kiya tha, aur main jaanti thi ki Wah mujhe aatma ke dwara sikhlayega aur mujhe badal dega agar maine apne pure hriday se kiya.
Main ab bhi apne musibaton se ladh rahi hoon, parantu main Praeshchit ke diviye madad mein vishwaas rakhti hoon. Yah sachcha ahesaas mila kyuki main pavitra mandir gayi thi, sahayata aur jawaab ko dhoodhne. Mandir mein main takleef ke saath gayi thi, aur bahar nikali yah jaantey ki mere paas ek pure-shaktishaali aur pure-prem karne waala Uddhaarkarta hai. Meri takleef kam hui aur khushi prapt hui kyunki maine apne liye Uske roshni ko prapt kiya tha aur Uske yogna swikaar kiya tha.
Duniya bhar ke, mandiron ke bahar weh apne alag alag dhang aur banaawat ke hai, parantu andar weh sab ek hi samaan anant roshni, mahatav, aur sachchaai ki hai. 1 Corinthians 3:16 mein hum padhtein hai, “Kya tum nahi jaante ki tum Parmeshwar ka mandir ho, aur Parmeshwar ka Aatma tum mein waas karta hai?” Hum bhi Parmeshwar ki putriyon ki tarah duniya bhar mein paaye jaatein hai, mandiron ki tarah, aur hum sab ke paas khud ki apni dhang aur bahari sajaawat hai, mandiron ki tarah. Hum mein bhi dhaarmik roshni hai, mandiron ki tarah. Yah dhaarmik gyaan Uddhaarkarta ki roshni ka parchaai hai. Dusre log bhi is roshni mein khiche chale ayenge.
Dharti par hum sab ke paas apne khud ke kaarye hai karne ko- putri, maa, neta, aur bahan ke liye shishye, paese kamane waali, patni, aur bhi zyaada se. Har ek shaktishaalli hai. Har kaarye ke paas maramshil shakti hai- jab hum apne jiwan ke susamachaar ke sachchaaiyon aur mandir ke vaadon ko dikhlatein hai.
Elder D. Todd Christofferson ne kaha, “Sabhi kaarye mein, ek maa jaesi prabhaaoshali koi aur nahi ho sakta kisi bhi nate mein.”8
Jab humare bachchein jawaan the, main apne pati, David, ek jahaaz ke, sahiyogi ki tarah mehsoos kar rahi thi aur maine apne 11 bachchon ke chote dal ke naao ko ird gird bandargraha par taertey hue, duniya ke samundar mein nikalne ki taeyaari mein. David aur maine Prabhu ke prerna ko har samay prapt karne ki zaroorat ko mehsoos kiya tha apne bachchon ke saath sab se achche maarg par jaane ke liye.
Mere beetey hue din mein kai bhul jaane waale cheez the jaese kapdon ko dhorna, bachchon ke kitab ko padhana, aur khana pakane waale cheezon ko raat ke bhojan ke liye saath rakhna. Kabhi kabhi humare ghar ke bandargarah mein, hum yah saral se nahi dekh paatein hai ki humesha ka kaarye, jis mein parivar prarthna, dharamshaastra ko padhana, aur parivaar gharelu sabha shaamil hai, mahaan kaarye hoti hai. Parantu main gawahi deta hoon ki yeh mahaan kaarye ke paas anant mahatav hai. Mahaan khushi prapt hoti hai jab weh chote naao- humare bachchein- mahaan susamachaar ke gyaan se bhar jaatein aur “Parmeshwar ke sewa karne ko “ taeyaar rehte hain.”9 Humare vishwaas aur sewa ke chote se kaarye se hum sab Parmeshwar ke saath humesha raha saktein hain aur humesha apne parivaar, humare doston, aur sangaton ke saath anant roshni aur mahima ko baat saktey hai. Sach mein tum dusron ko prabhaawit kar saktey ho!
Us prabhaao ke vishye mein socho jo ek Prathmik-umar ladki ke vishwaas se un ke parivaar par ho sakta hai. Humare putri ki vishwaas ne humare parivaar ko ashirwaad diya tha jab humne apne jawaan putra ko khelne waale park mein kho diya tha. Parivaar turant hi use ird-gird dhoondhne lage. Anth mein, humari das-saal- umar ki putri ne mere haathon ko gheecha aur kaha, “Maa, kya hume prarthna nahi karna chahiye?” Wah sahi thi! Parivaar bheedh ke beech mein ikatha hue aur humare bachche ka pata lagaane ke liye prarthna ko kiya. Humne use pa liya. Sabhi Prathmik ladkiyon se main kehti hoon ki, “Kripa apne maata-pita ko prarthna karne ki yaad dilaao!”
Is garmi ke samay mujhe Alaska ke 900 jawaan mahilaaon ke dere ko bhent karne ka mauka pradaan hua. Unka ghambheer prabhaao mujh par hua. Weh dere par dhaarmikta se taeyaar hokar aayi, Mormon ki Dharamshaastra ko padhne aur “Jiwit Maseeh: Devduton ke Gawahi” ko sikhne ke baad. Dere ke teesre raat ko, sabhi 900 jawaan mahilaaen saath khadi hui aur pure waakiye ko bilkul ussi tarah se doharaya.
Bada kamra Aatma se bhar gaya tha, aur main saath kahane ko tadap rahi thi. Parantu main nahi kar saki. Maine usse achchie tarah se yaad nahi kiya tha.
Maine “Jiwit Maseeh” ke vaani ko ab sikhna shuruaat kiya tha jaesa bahanon ne kiya tha, aur kyunki unke prabhaao ke kaaran maine aur bhi achchie tarah se prabhubhoj ke vaade ko anubhao kiya tha sabhi samay Uddhaarkarta ko yaad karne ka jabki maine Devduton ke Maseeh ki gawahi ko baar baar doharaya tha. Prabhbhoj mere liye aur bhi zyaada maaine rakhta hai.
Meri asha hai ki main Uddhaarkarta ko Bada Din ke uphaar mein is saal “Jiwit Maseeh” ko yaad kar ke pradaan karun aur December 25th tak sanjoh sakun. Main asha karti hoon ki main sachchaai ko prabhaawit karun- jaese Alaska ki bahane mere liye thi.
Kya tum apne aap se is waakiye ko dohara saktey ho, “Jiwit Maseeh”? “Usne sabhi ko Apne uddhaaran par chalne ko kaha. Usne Palestine ke raaston par, bimaaron ko dheek kiya, andhon ko dekhne ki sakti, aur mare hue ko jeewit kiya.”10
Hum, Girjaghar ki bahane, Palestine ke raaston par bimaaron ko dheek nahi kartei, parantu hum bimaaron ke liye prarthna kar sakti aur Praeschit ke prem ke dawa ko laga sakti, tute rishton ko jodh sakti hai.
Bhale hi hum Uddhaarkarta ki tarah andhon ko dekhne ki roshni nahi pradaan kar sakti hai, hum dhaarmik andhon ko mukti ke yogna ke gawahi ko bayaan kar sakti hai. Hum unke samjh ki akhon ko anant vaadon ke liye purohiti ke zarooraton se khol sakti hain.
Hum Uddhaarkarta ki tarah mare hue ko jiwit nahi karenge, parantu hum mare hue ke naam ko maandir ke kaarye ke liye dhoondh kar aashirwaad de saktein hain. Phir hum unhein aatma ke jel se azaad kar saktein hain aur unhein anant jiwan ke maarg dikhla saktein hain.
Main gawahi deti hoon ki humare Ishu Maseeh, jiwit Uddhaarkarta hai, aur Uske shakti aur gyaan se hum duniya ke buraai ko chod sakte hain, sachchaai jo hum jatein hain ko batlaein, aur dusron ko Uske piche chale. Ishu Maseeh ke naam se, amen.
