Ek Profat ke Dil
Hum log khushi manaye sakta ki Prabhu ke Profat apan jagha pe hai aur Prabhu ke kaam waise howe hai jaise u Apan aashish se batais raha.
Hum dil se praathna kara hai ki Pavitra Aatma hum sab ke saath aaj is swargye avsar par rahi. Hum log sab saath me abhi bahut prabhaoshaali cheez ke gawayi diya hai jaise is yug ke 17th profat i vishesh baethak me samarthan hois hai.
Jaise hum maargdarshan maanga jaane ke liye ki kaun topik par Prabhu maange hum baat kari, humaar man ek haali me hua baatcheet par ge jon naya Pratham Adhyakshta ke saathe hois raha. I charcha me, ek salahkaar aisan shabdbolis: “Hum gahera aasha karta hai ki girjaghar ke sadasyata is gambheerta ko samjhenge ki hum log ke naya profat ke calling se konchi hois hai, Pradhan Russell M. Nelson, aur mahatva aur pavitratra i vishesh baethak ke jon hoyi maha sammelan me.” Woh salahkaar aur batais, “ki 10 saal se jyaada hoye ge hai, khaas karke Girjaghar ke yuth ke liye, jinko yaad nahi hai aur i la anubhav nahi karis hai pahele.”
Is se hamein pahele laa anubhav yaad ayis. Jon pahela profat hamein yaad hai u hai Pradhaan David O. Mckay. Hum 14 saal ke raha jab uske mrityu hois. Hamein yaad ki uske mrityu se ek kami mehsoos bhe raha, hamaar maa ke aankhi la ansu, aur hum long ke pura pariwaar jon dukh mehsoos karis raha. Hamein yaad hai kaise i la shabd “Kripya Pradhaan David O. Mckay ke ashirvaad dena” hamaar praathna me hamaar hoth se sahaj roop me nikilis, agar hum accha se dhyaan nahi deta, to uske mrityu ke baad bhi, hum dekhta ki hum wahi sab shabd istemaal karta. Hum sochta raha ki hamaar dil aur dimaag uske baad la profat log ke bhi wahi ahesaas aur aastha se swikaar kari ki nahi. Lekin jaise maata pitah apan ladkan ke pyaar kare, hamein bhi pyaar mila, sambandh bhi, aur gawahi bhi Pradhaan Joseph Fielding Smith ke, jon Pradhaan McKay ke baad me profat raha, aur har ek profat ke gawahi mila uske baad : Harold B. Lee, Spencer W. Kimball, Ezra Taft Benson, Howard W. Hunter, Gordon B. Hinckley, Thomas S. Monson, aur aaj Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson. Hum har ek profat ke samarthan kara apan haath utha ke—aur apan pure dil se.
Jab jab hum log ke har ek priye profat gujar geis hai, u khali aam baat hai ki ek dukh aur kami mehsoos hoyi. Lekin hum log ke dukh me badlaao aai Punahsthaapna ke mahaan ashirvaad ke anand aur aasha se: jon ek jiwit profat ke niyukti (calling) aur dharti pe sastain kare la anubhav se mile.
Ussi vajah se, hum baat karega is ishwariye pratikriya ke baare me jaise dekha ge hai beete huye 90 din me. Hum samjhayega chaar bhaag me: pahela, hamaare priye profat ka guzarna aur Pratham Adhyakshta ka hatana; dusra, u-la waqt jab naya Pratham Adhyakshta ke fir se ayojit kare ke intzaar raha; teesra, naya profat aur Pratham Adhyakshta ke niyukti; aur chautha, naya profat aur Pratham Adhyakshta ke samarthan vishesh baethak me.
Profat ka Guzarna
Hum log shuru karta hai Janwari 2, 2018 ke, jab hum log ke priye profat Thomas S. Monson veil ke dusre taraf chala gaya. Unke liye hum log ke dil me hamesha jagha rahi. Pradhan Henry B. Eyring jon bhavna dis Pradhaan Monson ke guzhare par, u hum long ke bhavna bhi dikhaaye hai : “Uske zindagi ke kasauti, Uddhaarkarta ke rakam, uske akela chinta rahi gareeb aur bimaar log tak pahuche ke—aur sab log tak—pura duniya bhar me.”1
Pradhaan Spencer W. Kimball samjhais:
“Jaise ek taara samundar ke seema me dube hai, ek aur tasweer me aaye hai, aur mrityu jeevan ke paida kar dewe hai.
Prabhu ke kaam ke koi anth nahi hai. “Jab ek bahut shaktishaali neta guzhar jaawe hai, ek bhi pal ke liye girjaghar neta ke bina nahi rahewe hai, shukriya us meherbaan widhi ke jon apne raajye ke anaant teekau dis hai. Jaise hois hai … pahele i yug me, log shaanti se kabra band kar dewe, apan ansu sukha lewe, aur apan chahera aage ke bhavish ke taraf kar dewe.”2
Apostolic Interregnum (Profat ke bagaer)
Ek profat ke mrityu aur Pratham Adhyakshta ke fir se ayojit kare ke beech ke samaye ke “apostolic interregnum” bola jawe hai. I waqt ke dauraan, Barah Devdut ke Korum, korum ke pradhaan ke aguayi se, miljhul ke Girjaghar ke leadership ke chaabi rakhe hai. Iske baare me baat karte huye, Pradhaan Joseph F. Smith bolis,“girjaghar me sab samaye ek mukhiya rahi, aur agar girjaghar ke Adhyakshta mrityu yaa koi aur kaaran se hath ge,to girjaghar ke agla mukhiya Barah Devduton ke Korum rahi, jab tak ki firse Pratham Adhyakshta baitha nahi diya jayi.”3
Sabse haali la interregnum ke samaye shurui bhe Janwari 2 pe Pradhan Monson ke mrityu ke baad, aur khatam bhe Raviwaar, Janwari 14 ke, barah din baad. U sebath sabere me, Barah Devduton ke Korum Salt Lake Temple ke upar la kamra me upwaas aur praathna karis pavitra aatma ke prabhao se, Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson ke adhyakshta nirdeshan se,jon Barah Devduton ke Korum ke bada Apostle aur Pradhaan hai.
Ek Naya Profat ke Niyukti
I pavitra aur yaadgaar sabha me, Bhaai log bada se chota 13kursi ke aadha gola me baethis raha aur fir se haath uthayeke Pradhaan Russell Marion Nelson ke Ishu Masiha ka Girjaghar Antim-dinon ke Santon ka Pradhaan ke roop me samarthan karis, ekta aur mel ke achcha se sthapit kiya gaya misaal ke paalan karke. I sastainin ke baad Barah Devduton ke Korum ek gola banaye ke khada ho gae, aur Pradhaan Nelson ke sar par haath rakhke uske niyukti karis,aur bahut-bade sinia Apostal ke awaaz se.
Pradhaan Nelson fir apan salahkaar ke naam batais, Pradhaan Dallin Harris Oaks, Pradhaan Henry Bennion Eyring, aur Pradhaan Oaks Barah Devduton ke Korum ke Pradhaan ke roop me, aur Pradhaan Melvin Russell Ballard Barah Devduton ke Korum ke Ektin Pradhaan ke roop me. Aisan aur niyukti ke votes ke baad, sab bhaaiyon ke set apart bhe apan sahi offices me Pradhaan Nelson ke dwara. I la bahut pavitra anubhav raha, achcha Pavitra prabhao ke saath. Hum aap log ke apan purn gawahi deta hai ki Prabhu ke ichcha, jiske liye hum log chaah se praathna kara raha, bahut shakti se u din ke ayojan me raha.
Pradhaan Nelson ke odineshan se aur Pratham Adhyakshta ke dobaara ayojit kare se, profat ke bagaer ka samay khatam hoyi ge, aur naya baithaya hua Pratham Adhyakshta kaam kare laga Prabhu ke raajye ke dharti pe chalawe ke, bina koi rukawat ke.
Vishesh Baethak
I subha, is ishwariye prakriya samaapan hoyis hai Doctrine aur Covenants ke aadesh se: “Har cheez ek odar me hona chahiye, aur girjaghar me sab ke samajh se, vishwaas ke praathna se,”4 aur “teen Adhayshta High Prists ke saath, … aatmavishwaas, vishwaas, aur girjaghar ke praathna, se bane hai Girjaghar ke Adhyakshta ke parishad.”5
Elder David B. Haight batais ek pahele hoye la ghatna ke baare me jon cheez me hum log aaj shamil hoya hai:
“Hum log gawah hai aur shamil hoya hai ek bahut pavitra avasar par—ek vishesh baethak me jahan pe swargye cheez karega. Jaise purana samaye me, bahut upwaas aur praathna duniya bhar me santon dwara diya gaya raha taaki u log ke Prabhu ke Aatma ke aashish mile, jaise ki aaj i sabere i avsar par saabit … hai.
“Ek vishesh baethak, jaise uske naam me hai, suchit kare hai ki i ek pavitra, shaant, aur sushil avsar hai jab Santo Pratham Adhyakshta ke nirdeshan se ikattha hoye hai.”6
Bhaaiyon aur bahano, hum log khushi manaye sakta hai—“Hosanna!”—bhi sakta bole!-ki Prabhu ke awaaz, Parmeshwar ke profat, is jagha par hai aur ki Prabhu khush hai ki uske kaam waise howe hai jaise u apan aashish se batais raha.
Pradhaan Russell M.Nelson
I aashish se niyukt kiya gaya prakriya ek profat ke niyukti kare hai. Jaise Pradhaan Monson dharti par ek bahut bada nivasee raha, waise hi Pradhaan Nelson hai. Unko bahut gambheerta se taiyaar kara ge hai aur khaas karke Prabhu se sikhaaya gaya hai, hum log kewaqt me aage badhae ke liye. Hum log ke kitna bada arshirvaad hai ki hum log ke paas Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson hai , pyaar kare waala aur samarpit profat—Girjaghar ke is aakhri yug ke 17th Pradhaan.
Pradhaan Nelson ek bahut asaadharan aadmi hai. Hamein vishesh adhikaar mila hai uske saathe Barah Devduton ke Korum me sewa kare ke jab u korum pradhaan raha dui saal tak. Hum uske sange safar kara hai aur uske taaqat se hairat hai, kyunki bahut jaldi jaaye ke padhi agar mangta uske pakde to. Sab milaye ke u apan jeevan me 133 desh log me ghumees hai.
Uske aage badhana sabke liye hai, jawaan aur budha ke liye. Aise lage hai ki woh sabke jaane hai aur naam yaad karela uske gun hai. Jo bhi uske jaane hai, u-log ke lage ki u-log uske chahite hai. Aur aise hi hai hum log ke liye—kyunki uske paas hum log ke liye bhi asli pyaar aur hum log ke liye chinta hai.
Hamaar kaam Pradhaan Nelson ke sange girjaghar sambandhi kaam me raha hai, phir bhi hum Pradhaan Nelson ke kaam la zindagi ke baare me bhi sikha hai uske Jenral Athoriti bane se pahele. Jaise ki bahut log jaane hai ki, Pradhaan Nelson ek duniya me jaana hua dil ke daktar raha, aur jab kaam shuru karis raha, tab heart-lung machine ke banais raha. Pradhaan Nelson ek risech team me raha jon sabse pahela khula-heart opereishan me sahayata dis raha ek insaan pe,1951 me, ek heart-lung bypass istemaal karke. Uske alaawa,Pradhaan Nelson heart ke opereishan karis hai Pradhaan Spencer W. Kimball pe, Pradhaan Kimball ke profat bane se thora pahele.
Dilchaaspi se, Pradhaan Nelson ke profeshnal medical pesha jaha pe woh dil mazboot karta raha aur dil banata raha, khatm hoyege jab uske niyukti bhe Barah Devduton ke Korum me 34 saal pahele, usse shuru hois Devdut la dekhrekh jahan woh hazaaro log ke dil mazboot karis aur banais apan hi shabd aur budhimaani ke kaam, sewa aur pyaar se.
Masih Jaisa Dil
Jab hum ek Masih jaisa dil ke baare me sochta hai apan roj ke zindagi me, hum Pradhaan Nelson ko dekhta. Hum koi ke kabhi nahi mila jon Pradhaan Nelson se accha udhaaran dewe hai i-vishay me. Hamein bahut adhbhud shikshak mila hai i rup me rahe ke Pradhaan Nelson ke Masih ke jaisan laa dil dekhe ke.
Barah ke Korum me niyukt hoye ke thora baad Aktubar 2015 me, hamein mauka mila raha Pradhaan Nelson ke kaam laa zindagi ke nazdeek se dekhe ke. Hamme ek event pe amantrit kara ge raha jahan uske dil ke sejary me paenia ke rup me sammaanit kara ge raha. Jab hum hall me gaya, hum haeraan raha bahut bhaari sankhya me profeshnal log ke dekh ke jon aayis raha Pradhaan Nelson ke bahut saal pahele kara hua kaam ke sammaan kare aur pahechaan dewe.
U sanjha ke bahut profeshnal khada hoye ke apan adar sammaan aur prashansha dees Pradhaan Nelson ke uske bahut accha yogdaan ke liye jon woh medikal speshialty me dees raha. Jitna bhi prasann hoye la dedh baat bahut log bolis Pradhaan Nelson ke safalta ke baare me, hum ek aadmi ke baat sunte rahe gaya jon hamaar bagal men baithis raha aur humse baat karta raha. U-nahi janta raha hum kaun hai, lekin u-janta raha Pradhaan Nelson ke Dr. Nelson ke naam se, jon u-waqt thoracic sejari residency kaaryekram ke daerektar raha 1955 me ek medikal skul me.
I la aadmi Pradhaan Nelson ke purana vidhyarti raha. Woh kayi yaadgaar baat batais. Sabse dilchasp raha uske description Pradhaan Nelson ke padaye ke style ke baare me, jon u-bole sab ke uthna accha nahi lagta raha. Woh batais ki dher dil sajari niwaasi ki shikshakapreshan kamra me hota raha. Waha par, niwaasi dekhe aur sajari kare apan adhyapak log ke suparvishan se, jaise laboratory kaksha me hoye. U bole ki apretin kamra ke vaataavaran kuch adhyapak surgeons ke sanghe bahut gadbad, pratiyogee, pressure se bhara hua aur ghamand se bhi chalta tha. Woh batais ki u vaataavaran bahut kathin raha, kabhi kabhi neecha bhi dikhaye deta raha. Bahut mauke me, niwaasi sarjan mehsoos karis ki u log ke kaam bhi sakta raha khatam hoye jaye.
U fir batais aperatin kamra ke vaataavaran ke baare me jab Pradhaan Nelson waha par raha. Ekdum shaanti se bhara hua aur abhimaani raha. Niwaasi ke bahut aadar se sammaan milta raha. Lekin, ek tarika sikhawe ke baad, Dr. Nelson hamesha sab niwaasi(residant) se uncha sthar ki vyavahar mangta raha. I aadmi aur batais ki kaise sabse achcha mariz ke parinaam aur sabse accha daktar log Dr. Nelson ke apreshan kamra se aata raha.
I la parinaam hamein haerat nahi karis. I la sab cheez hum nazdeek se dekha aur sach me hume bahut ashirvaad mila hai Barah ke Korum se. Hamein lage ki hum ek rakam se uske “padaya hua vidhyarti” hai.
Pradhaan Nelson ke dusra log ke padaye ke ek khaas andaaz hai aur woh galti purn aur sammaanye rakam se sudharta raha. Woh hum sab ke liye Masih jaisa dil ek avtaar hai aur hum log ke liye udhaaran hai. Usse hum log sikhta hai ki hum log koi bhi paristhiti me apne aap ke payega, hum log ke sanchaalan aur dil Ishu Masih ke susamachaar ke sidhaant me rahi.
Hum log ke paas ab mahaan ashirvaad hai profat ke sataain kare ke, Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson. Uske zindagi bhar,u apan bahut bhoomika accha se nibhais hai jaise ki shikshak,pita,adhyaapak,daktar,purohiti rakhke waala,aaja aur Devdut. U sab bhoomika tab nibhais—aur abhi bhi nibhaawe hai—ek profat ke dil se.
Bhaaiyon aur baheno, jon cheez ke hum log aaj gawahi kara hai and shaamil hoya hai, ek vishesh bhaetak, hume gawahi dewe hai ki Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson Prabhu ke aawaaz hai sab insaan ke liye. Hum Parmeshwar jo Pita hai, Ishu Masih, aur Uska hamara Uddhaarkarta aur Muktidaata hone ke bhumika pe gawahi deta hai. Ishu Masih ke naam se, amen.
