Susamachaar Achche dhang se Badlaao Dega!
Pradhaan Dieter F. Uchtdorf dwara
Pratham Adhyakshta ke Dusre Salahkaar
Main prarthna karta hoon ki hum dhyaan dein “ki saralta Maseeh mein hi hai” aur woh Apni kripadrishti ko maoka denge hamein hamare yaatra mein uthane aur aage badhaane mein.
Mere pyare bhaaiyon aur bahanon, mere priye doston, tumhare saath se mujhe aaj khushi mili hai. Hum udaas hai is theenon khaali kursi ko dekhke is manch par. Hum Pradhaan Packer, Elder Perry, aur Elder Scott ko yaad karte yaad karte hai. Hum unpar adaarsh karte, aur unke parivaaron ke liye prarthna karte hai.
Is sammelan ke dauraan mein, hum ko saobhaagye milega do naye logon ka samarthan karne ka jisko Prabhu ne chunna hai unki jagah lene ke liye jo Barah Devduton ke Parishad ke the.
Unke liye tumhari prarthna unko mazboot karenge jab woh pavitra niyukti ko paayenge.
Kya Susamachaar Tumhare Badlaao Laata hai?
Kaafi samay pahele maine ek uddharan dekha jisse mai ruk kar sochne laga. Kaha gaya: “Aadmi ko batlaaoge ki sansaar mein laakho taare hai, aur woh tumko vishwaas karega. Unko batlaaoge ki deewar mein bheeja raang hai, aur woh chuyega sach jaanne ke liye.
Kya hum thora sa aisa hai? Haal mein ek dactaari kaaryevidhi par, mere bahut kaabil dactaro ne samjhaya ki mujhe theek hone ke liye kya karna chahiye. Par pahele mujhe phir se apne aap ke baare mein kuch sikhna hoga jo mujhe jaanna tha: ek mareez ki tarah, mujh mein dhaerye nahin.
Tab maine faesla kiya ki tezi se ilaaj ho jaane ke liye main khud hi Internet mein dhoodhunga. Mujhe laga mai woh sachchaai dhoondh lungi jiske baare mein mere daactaron ko nahin pata hoga ya unhonne chupaya hai.
Mujhe kaafi der laagi jabki mujhe mehsoos hua ki main kitna neenda kar raha tha. Avashye hi, apne aap se talaash karna buri vichaar nahi hai. Magar main sachchaai ki parvaah kiye bina khud ko Internet ki logpriye jaal mein phaasne waala tha.
Kabhi kabhi, sachchaai sidha, saadharan, aur saral dikhta hai hamare liye ki hum uske mahaan mol ki prashansa nahin karte. Isliye hum apne sachche anubhavon aur gyaan ko nazarandaaz karke aur gupt ya kathin sujhaao dhoondhte hai. Ant mein hum seekh jaaenge ki jab hum parchaai ka picha karte hai, hum kam mahatva aur mol ke cheezon ko dhoondhte hai.
Jab dhaarmik sachchaai par aati hai, hum kaise jaante hai ki hum sachchaai ki raaste par hai?
Ek raaste hai ki sachche sawaal pucho—woh sawaal jisse hum apni pragati ki sochte aur sab kuch hamare hit mein ho raha hai. Jaise yeh sawaal:
“Kya mera jeevan ka koi matlab hai?”
“Kya main Parmeshawar ko vishwaas karta hai?”
“Kya main vishwaas karta hoon ki Woh mujhe jaanta hai aur pyaar karta hai?”
“Kya mai vishwaas karta hoon ki Woh mera prarthana ko sunnta hai aur jawaab deta hai?”
“Kya main sachmuch khush hoon?”
“Kya mera koshish mera sabse unche aatmik lakshye aur siddhaant ko aage badhati hai jeevan mein?”
Ayse gambhir sawaalo jo jeevan ke bare mein batlaate hai ne kai logo aur parivaaron ko duniyabhar mein sachchaai ko dhoondhne ki raye diya hai. Baar baar us talaash ne unko Ishu Maseeh Ka Girjaghar Antim-dino Ke Santo Ka aur punahsthaapit susamachaar tak le gaya hai.
Main sochta hoon agar hum, Girjaghar ke sadasye, ki hum bhi faeda se apne aap ko puchte hai samay samay par: “Kya Girjaghar mein mera anubhav badlaao dega? Kya mujhe Maseeh ke kareeb laa raha hai? Kya mujhe aur mere parivaar ko shanti aur khushi ki ashirvaad deta hai jaise ki susamachaar mein vaada kiya gaya hai?”
Alma ne ayse hi sawaal Zarahemla ki girjaghar ki sadasyon se pucha: “Kya tumne apne hriday mein parivartan ka anubhav kiya hai? … [Aur] kya tum ab [use] mehsoos kar rahe ho?”1 Aisa hi vichaar hamare daenik koshishon ko phir divye uddhaar ki yojna se dhyaan ya maarg par laayega.
Kai sadasye khushi se jawaab denge ki unka anubhav ek Girjaghar ki sadasye ke rup mein unmein badlaao laa raha hai. Woh gawahi denge ki chahe gareebi ya pragati ki samay par, chahe sukadh ya dukhad, woh jeevan mein mahaan matlab, shanti, aur anand ko payenge kyunki unhonne ne Prabhu ko vachan diya aur samarpan se Girjaghar mein sewa ki. Har roz main Girjaghar sadasyon ko milta hoon jo anandit hote hai aur shabd se kam par dikhata hai ki unki jeevan mein mahaan ashirvaad mila hai Ishu Maseeh ki punarsthaapit susamachaar se.
Par mai unhe bhi jaanta hoon jinhe isse bhi-kam-santushti-anubhav mila hai--jo mehsoos karte hai ki Girjaghar mein unki sadasyata itna nahi hai jo woh umeed karte hai.
Yeh mujhe dukh deta hai, kyunki main khudh jaanta hoon kaise susamachaar kisi ke aatma ko mazboot karta aur badlaao laata—kaise who hamare hriday aur mann ko raushni se bharta hai. Main khudh hi jaanta hoon ki kaise Ishu Maseeh ki susamachaar ki fal ek maamuli aur udaas jeevan ko badlega anokhi aur uttam mein.
Magar kyun aisa lagta hai ki kisi ke liye dusre se behtar hoga? Yeh bhedbhav kya hai jinka Girjaghar anubhav unke aatma ko mukti paane waale prem2 ke geet se bhar deta hai aur woh jo hamesha kami mehsoos karte rehte hai?
Jab main in sawaalon ko sochta tha, kai vichaar mere dimaag mein aaye. Aaj, main do vichaar batana chahata hoon.
Saralta se
Pahela: kya hum apni chelapan ko kathin karte hai?
Yeh sundar susamachaar itna saral hai ki ek bachcha mul samajh jayega, phir bhi gambhir aur jatil hai ki jeevanbhar lag jaaye—ek anantta bhi—ispar adhyan aur khoj karke sab samajhne mein.
Par kabhi kabhi hum Parmeshwar ki sachchaai ki sundar kamal ko maanav rachit achche vichaar, kaaryekramon, aur pratikshaa se saja lete hai. Har ek, khudh hi, madad kar sakta hai aur upyogi hota hai ek khaas mauke aur haalat par, agar woh dusre par se achchi tarah se rakh diya jaaye, woh ek mael ka pahad ban sakta hai jo bahut adhik aur abhaari hai ki hum us sundar phool ko na dekh paane ke khatre mein honge jisse hum kabhi itna prem karte the.
Isiliye, ek neta ki tarah hum ko Girjaghar aur susamachaar ko kadai se raksha karna unki pavitrata aur saralta mein aur apne sadasyon par bekar bhojh nahi daalna chaahiye.
Aur hum sab sadasyon imaandari se koshish karni chahiye apni taqat aur mauke ko samarpit karein jo cheeze sachmuch mahatva hai, hamari nivasee ki shakti bhadana aur Parmeshawar ke raajye ko mazboot karna.
Ek bahan, ek Sahayak Sanstha ki shikshak thi, doshrahit paath padhane ke liye jaani jaati thi. Ek samay usne faesla kiya ki woh ek sundar quilt ko banaegi jo uske paath ka Vishay vastu se juda hoga. Magar bahut kuch karna tha--bachche ko skool se laana tha, ek padosi ko ghar badalne mein madad karni thi, pati jo bhukar tha, aur ek dost akeli mehsoos kar rahi thi. Shikshan ka din aaya, aur quilt pura nahi ban paaya. Ant mein, shikshan se pehli waali raat, woh bahut nahin so paayi kyunki raat bhar quilt banati rahi thi.
Dusri din woh thak gayi aur woh apni soch ko ayojit nahin kar paa rahi thi, par woh shakti se khadi hokar apni shikshan padhaai.
Aur woh quilt bahut hi sundar tha-- uski silaai ekdam sahi tha, uski raang chamkila, uski rup jatil aur sundar tha. Aur uske beech mein ek hi shabd tha jo safalta se unki shikshan ka vishay vastu ko dohrata tha: “Saral karna.”
Bhaaiyon aur bahanon, susamachaar ko jeena khatin nahi hona chahiye.
Samajhna bahut saral hai. Aise hi kaha jaata:
-
Sachchaai se Parmeshwar ki shabd ko sunna hum ko Parmeshwar par vishwaas aur Unki vaadon par bharosa karna sikhlata hai.3
-
Jitna hi hum Parmeshwaar ko bharosa karte hai, utna hi hamare hriday par Unke liye aur dusro ke liye pyaar se bhara hoga.
-
Kyunki hamare prem Parmeshwaar par, hum chahate hai hum Unke piche chale aur hamare kaarye Unke shabd se mel khaaye.
-
Kyunki hum Parmeshwaar ko prem karte hai, hum Usko sewa karna chahata hai; hum dusro ko ashirvaad dena chahata hai aur gareebo aur zarooratmand ko madad karein.
-
Jitna hi hum is chelapan ki raaste par chale, utna hi hum Parmeshwaar ki shabd ko sunna chahate hai.
Aur aisa hi hoga, har ek kadam agla kadam aur hum vishwaas, aasha, aur dayaluta mein badhte jaayenge.
Woh sundar rup se saral hai, aur sundar badlaao dega.
Bhaaiyon aur bahanon, agar tum sochte ho ki susamachaar tumhare liye badlaao nahi laenga, main amantrit karta hoon aapko, apne jiwaan par unche jagah se dekho, aur saralta se apne chelapan par pravesh karo. Bunyaadi siddhant par dyaan lagaae, siddhant par, aur susamachaar ki prayog. Main vaada karta hoon ki Parmeshwaar hum ko rakhsha aur ashirvaad karega tumhare raste par jiwan ko pura karne mein, aur susamachaar sachmuch badlao dega tumko.
Jahan Tum Ho Wahan Shuru Kijiye
Meri dusri sujhaao hai: jahan tum ho wahan shuru kijiye.
Kabhi kabhi hum uddasi ko mehsoos karte hai kyunki hum “aur” nahi hai. Zyaada dhaarmik, izzatdaar, samajhdaar, swasth, dhani, kripalu, ya laayak. Waise to, sudharne ki chaahat buri nahin hai. Parmeshwaar ne hum ko banaya hai ki hum aage badhe aur sudhre. Magar yaad karna, hamari majboori hum ko madad karegi ki hum vinamra bane aur Maseeh ki or mude, jo “kamzor cheeze ko mazboot karenge.”4 Antar mein, shaetaan, hamari kamzori ko istemaal karte hai ki hum koshish karne mein niraash rahe.
Main apne jeevan me yeh sikha ki who hum ko “aur” ki zaroorat nahi hai us vyakti ko jo Parmeshwaar chahata hai banne ke liye.
Parmeshwaar aap ko lenge jaisa hi ho is mauke par aur tumhare saath badlaao shuru karenge. Sirf aap ko ek uthsukh hriday, vishwaas, aur Prabhu par bhaarosa chahiye.
Gideon apne aap ko ek gareeb kisaan ki tarah dekha, apne pita ke ghar ka sabse chota. Par Parmeshwaar ne usko ek bahadur aadmi ke rup mein dekha.5
Jab Samuel ne Saul ko raja banne ko chunna, Saul ne koshish ki ki weh mana karein. Saul Israel ki ek choti si dal se hai. Woh kaise raja banega?6 Par Parmeshwaar unko ek “chunni hui jawaan purush” ki tarah dekha.7
Usi prakar bhi mahaan bhavishyevakta Moses ne atyadhik bojh aur udaasi ko mehsoos kiya ki woh haar man li aur maarna chahata tha.8 Lekin Parmeshwaar Moses ko harne nahi diya.
Mere pyaari bhaayion aur bahanon, agar hum apne aap ko maranshilta ki aankhe se dekhenge, hum apne aap ko achchi tarah se nahi dekh paaenge. Magar hamare Swarg ke Pita hum ko dekhte hai jaise hi hum kaun hai aur hum kya ban sakte hai. Woh hum ko Uski putra aur putri ki tarah dekhte hai, jaise anant raushni ke log anant sambhavna aur divye lakshye lekar.9
Uddhaarkarta ka balidaan se mukti ki darwaaze khol diya gaya sab ke liye Parmeshwar ke paas lautne ko. Uski “kripadrishti paryaapt hai unke liye [jo] [Parmeshwaar] saamne vineet bane.”10. Uski kripadrishti ek yogye shakti hai jo Parmeshwaar ke mukti ki raajye mein pravesh swikaar karta hai. Uski kripadrishti se, hum sab punarjiwit hoga aur mahima ki raajye mein bach jaenge.
Sabse chota mahima ka raajye bhi—jo telestial raajye jai, “samajh se adhik hota,”11 aur zyaada logon ko uddhaar milenga.12
Par Uddharkarta ki kripadrishti se hum sab ke liye aur kar sakta hai. Ishu Maseeh Ka Girjaghar Antim-Dino Ke Santo Ka ke sadasyon se, hum kalpana se baahar ke cheez abhilashaa karenge. Woh celestial raajye mein pragati hai. Woh anant jeevan hai Swarg ke Pita ki chaya mein. Woh ek mahaan ashirvaad hai Parmeshwar ka.13 Celestial raajye mein, hum “uski prachurta ko swikaar karte hai, aur uski mahima ko.”14 Sachmuch mein, jo sab Pita ke paas hai hum ko diya jaega.15
Anant jeevan hamara lakshye hai; chelapan hamara safar hai.
Jab aap vishwaas ko prayog karte hai aur aap Prabhu Ishu Maseeh ka shaant chela banoge, tumhari hriday badal jaega.16 Tumhari pure hriday raushni se badh sakenge.17
Parmeshwaar tum ko madad karega apne aap ko mahaan banane mein jo tum kabhi socha nahi ki mumkin hai. Aur tum pahechan paaoge ki susamachaar sachmuch badlaao dega tumhare jeevan mein.
Susamachaar Badlaao Dega!
Bhaaiyon aur bahanon, priye doston, main prarthna karta hoon ki hum dhyaan dein “ki saralta Maseeh mein hi hai”18 aur woh Apni kripadrishti ko maoka denge hamein hamare yaatra mein uthane aur aage badhaane mein Pita ki upasthiti tak.
Aysa karne se, jab koi puchega, “Kis prakar se Ishu Maseeh Ka Girjaghar Antim-dino Ke Santo Ka tumhare liye badlaao laa raha hai?” hum gaurav se aur mahaan khushiyali se bolenge, “Achcha se badlaao hua. Puchne ke liye dhanyevaad. Kya aap aur jaanna chahenge?”
Ye mera umeed, mera prarthna, aur mera gawahi hai Ishu Maseeh ke naam se, amen.
