Divye Asantosh
Divye asantosh humen vishvaas me karye karne ke liye prerit kar sakta hai, achchhe kare ke liye Uddhaarkarta ke nimantran ka paalan kare, aur humare jivan ko namrata se de sakta hai.
Jab hum elementery skool me raha, to hum ek raste ke nishaan par ghar chal ke jata raha jo pahaadi ke kinare aage aur upar ghayal ho jaata raha. Ek aur nishaan raha, bina pake hue, jiske “ladakon ka nishaan” kaha jaata raha. Ladakon ka nishaan chata me raha u raasta pahaadi se par sidhe chala jata raha. Yah chhota raha lekin bahut gahira raha. Ek javaan ladaki ke roop me, mujhe pata raha ki mai ladakon ke kohi bhi nishaan pe chale sakta hai. Sab se jaruri baat i hai, ki mujhe pata raha ki me antim dinon me raha aur mujhe khada kaam kare ke zaroorat rahi, jaise ki paeniyar—aur hum manta raha taiyaar rahe. To har ab aur phir, me apane doston ke group ke pichhe pade hue nishaan par pichhe hat jaoonga, apane joote hata doonga, aur ladakon ke nishaan par nange pair chalega. Me apane pairon ko sakht kare ki koshish kar raha tha.
Ek yuva Praemri ladki ke roop me, hum socha ki me taiyaari kare sakta hai. Ab me alag-alag jaanata hai! Pahaadi raste par nange pair chale ki bajaaye, mujhe pata hai ki me Pavitra Aatma ke nimantran ka jawaab dekar vaacha path par chale ke liye apan pairon ke taiyaar kare sakta hai. Prabhu ke liye, uske Profat ke maadhyam se, hum sabhi ko “uchch aur pavitr tarike” me rahe aur dekhabhaal kare ke liye bulais raha aur ”kadam aage badao.”1
Ye bhavishyevaani se kaarvai karne ke pukaar, humare sahaj gyaan ke saath humme batawe ki hum long kare sakta aur zyaada bane sakta, kabhi-kabhi humare bhitar woh banaate hai jise Elder Neal A. Maxwell ne “divye asantosh” bola tha.”2 Divye asantosh hota hai jab hum tulna karte hai “hum jo hai [ka] hamare paas jo banne ki shakti hai.”3 Hum sabhi, agar hum imaandaar hai, hum kahan hai aur hum kaun hai ke beech ke antar ko mehsoos karte hai, aur kahan aur kaun banna chahate hai. Hum adhik vyaktigat haesiyat ke liye utsuk hai. Humare paas ye bhaavnaaen hai kyonki hum Parmeshwar ki betiyaan aur putra hai, jo ki Masih ki roshni se paida hue hai, jo abhi bhi gire hue duniya me rahati hai. In bhaavanaon ko Parmeshwar se diya jaata hai aur kaarye kare ki tatkaalta paida hoti hai.
Humen divye asantosh ki bhaavnaon ka svaagat kareke chaahi jo humen uchche jagah pe bulaate hai, jabki Shaitaan ke chal ko pehchanna aur prahej karna—taaqat kamti kare la niraasha. Yah ek anmol jagah hai jismen Shaitaan koodane ke liye utsuk hai. Hum uchche maarg par chalne ka chunaav kar sakte hai jo humen Parmeshwaar aur Uski shaanti aur anugrah ki talaash kare ke liye prerit karata hai, ya hum Shaitaan ko sun sakte hai, jo humen aise sandeshon ka baochaar karta hai ki hum kabhi utna paryaapt nahi rahenge: paese se, buddhi se, sundarta se, kisi bhi tarah se. Humara asantosh divye—ya vinaashakaari ban sakta hai.
Vishwaas se Kaarye Kar
Shaitaan ke nakali se divye asantosh ko bataane ka ek tarika yah hai ki divye asantosh humen wafaadaar kaarravai ke liye prerit karega. Divye asantosh humare aaraam shetra me rahane ka nimantran nahi hai, na hi yah humen niraasha ke liye netritav karega. Maine sikha hai ki jab mai sab kuch jo mai nahi hoon ke vichaaron me ghoomta hoon, mai pragati nahi karta hoon aur mujhe lagata hai ki Aatma ko mehasoos karna aur uska paalan karna adhik kathin lagta hai.4
Ek javaan aadmi ke roop me, Joseph Smith apni khamiyon ke baare me achche se jante hai aur “[uski] amar aatma ke kalyaan” ke baare me chintit ho gaya. Apne shabdon me,“Mera dimaag bahut pareshaan ho gaya, kyonki mai apne paapon ke liye doshi paaya gaya, aur… apne paapon aur duniya ke paapon ke liye shok kare laga.”5 Isne unhen “gambhir soch aur mahaan bechaini”me daal diya.”6 Kya yah wahi chiz hai? Kya aap apni khamiyon se asahaj ya pareshaan hai?
Khaer, Joseph ne kuch kiya. Unhonne kaha, “maine aksar khud se kaha: kya arna hai?”7 Joseph biswaas se kaam karis. Usne skripchas me khoja, is nimantran ko padhein James 1:5, aur madad ke liye Parmeshwar ki or mudha. Iske talluk rakhta hua drishti Punahsthaapna me diya gaya tha. Mai kitna abhaari hoon ki Joseph ki divye asantosh, uska bechaeni aur bhram ka samay, ne use biswaas ke saath kaarvahi karne ko uksaaya.
Achchaai Karne ka Sanketo ka Paalan Karna
Duniya aksar asantosh ka ek ehsaas istemaal karta hai ek bahana ke rakam khud-me-mashruf rehwe, apan dhyaan andar aur bhitar ki or modna aur akele hi sochte rehna mai kaun hoon, maikaun nahi hoon, aur mai kya chahati hoon. Divye asantosh hum long ke prerna dewe hai Uddhaarkarta ke uddhaaran pe chale ke, “jo humesha achcha hi karta tha.”8 Jaise-jaise hum shishyavrtti ke maarg par chalte hai, hum doosaron tak pahunchne ke liye aatmik dhakke praapt karenge.
Ek saal pehele mene suna ek kahaani ne mujhe pehchaanne me madad ki aur phir Pavitra Aatma se sanketon par kaarye kiya. Sahayak Sanstha ke Jenral poorva Pradhaan Bahan Bonnie D. Parkin, ne yeh bataya tha:
“Susan … ek badhiya taila raha. Pradhaan [Spencer W.] Kimball [uske] ward me rahata raha. Ek Ravivaar, Susan ne dekha ki usake paas ek naya soot raha. Usake pitah ne haal hi me … use kuch uttam reshum kapade lais raha. Susan ne socha ki kapade Pradhaan Kimball ke naye soot ke saath jaane ke liye ek sundar tai bana dega. To Somavaar ko usne tai banaaya. Usne ise tishu pepar me lapet liya aur Pradhaan Kimball ke ghar chala gaya jo ek block ki duri me tha.
“Saamne ke darvaaje par jaane ke baad, woh achaanak ruk ke sochne lagi,‘Mai kaun hoon profat ke liye taae banane waali? Unke paas shaayad bahut zyaada hai.’ Soch ke ki usne galti kiya, woh jaane lagi.
“Bas tab Sista Kimball ne saamne ke darvaaje ko khola aur kaha, ‘Oh, Susan!’
Ghabraae ke , Susan ne kaha, maine Raviwaar ko Pradhaan Kimball ko apne nae soot me dekha tha. Pitaaji ne mujhe New York se kuch reshum ka kapda laaya … aur isliya maine use taae bana diya.’
“Susan ke aur bole se pehle, Bahan Kimball ne use rok diya, uske kandhon ko pakad liya, aur kaha: ‘Susan, kabhi bhi ek daani vichaar ko dabao nahi.’”9
Mujhe pasand hai yeh! “Ek daani vichaar kabhi dabao nahi.” Kabhi-kabhi jab mujhe kisi ke liye kuch kare ke sochaawe hai, to mujhe aashchary hota hai ki yah ek ishaara hai ya sirf mera vichaar hai. Lekin mujhe yaad dilaaya jaata hai ki “jo Parmeshwar ka hai vah amantrit karta aur lagataar achchaai karne ki prerna deta hai; isliye, har chij jo achcha kare ke liye aamantrit aur prerit karti hai aur Parmeshwar se pyaar karati hai, aur uski seva karati hai, Parmeshwar se hai.”10
Chaahe we sidhe sanket ya sahaayata ke liye aaveg hai, ek achchha kaam kabhi barbaad nahi hota hai, kyonki “dayaluta kabhi asafal nahi hota”11—aur kabhi galat jawaab nahi hota.
Aksar samay asuvidhaajanak hota hai, aur hum shaayad hi kabhi sewa ke apne chote kaaryon ka asar pehchaante hai. Lekin hum yah svikaar karenge ki hum Parmeshwar ke haathon me saadhan rahe hai aur hum yah jaankar abhaari honge ki humare dvaara kaam kar rahe Pavitra Aatma Parmeshwar ki manjoori dikhata hai.
Bahanon, aap aur mai Pavitra Aatma ke liye anurodh kar sakte hai ki woh hamein “sabhi chijen jo humen karana chaahiye” dikhaae,”12 yahan tak ki jab humari too-doo soochi pehele se hi bhari lagti hai. Jab sanket diya gaya, to hum sink me bartan chhod sakte hai ya ek bachche ko padhane ke liye dhyaan churaane waale chunautiyon se bhara din, ek padosi ke bachchon ko bebisit kar sakte hai, ya tempal me seva kar sakte hai. Mujhe galat mat samajho—mai ek list banane waali hoon; mujhe chijon ko tick off karna achchi tarah aati hai. Lekin shaanti yah jaankar aati hai ki adhik hone se ka matlab nahi hota adhik karna. Asantosh ke samadhaan nikaalna prerna pe amal karke mere sochne ka tarika badal deta hai “mera samay,” aur mai logon ko baadhaon ke rakam nahi balki mere jivan ke uddeshy ke rakam dekhati hoon.
Divye asantosh hume Masih ke taraf leke jawe hai.
Divye asantosh vinamrata ki or le jaata hai, na ki khud-pe-taras ya niraasha ki taraf jo tulna kare se aata hai jisme hum humesha kamzor rehte hai. Vachanbadh mahilaen sabhi saaiz aur shaip me aati hai; unke parivaar, unke jivan ke anubhav, aur unki paristhitiyaan me bhinnata hai.
Beshak, hum sabhi humari divye chamta se kam kar paaenge, aur yah ehsaas me kuch sachchai hai ki akele hum paryaapt nahi hai. Lekin susamaachaar ki achchhi khabar yah hai ki Parmeshwar ki kripa ke saath, hum paryaapt hai. Masih ki madad se, hum sab kuch kar sakte hai.13 Skripchas ka vaada hai ki hum “zaroorat ke samay me madad kare ke liye kripa paayenge.”14
Aashcharye ki baat yah hai ki hamare kamzoriyaan ek ashirvaad ho sakte hai jab hum unke zariye vinamra bante hai aur Masih ke or modhte hai.15 Asantosh divye ho jaata hai jab hum namrata se vaapas pakadne ki bajae namrataa se Ishu Masih se humari ichchha ke saath sampark karte hai.
Vaastav me, Ishu ke chamatkaar aksar kisi ichcha, zaroorat, asafalta, ya kamzori ke pehchaan se shuru hoti hai. Roti aur machliyaan yaad hai? Susamaachaar lekhakon me se pratyek bataata hai ki kaise Ishu ne chumatkaarik rakam se un hajaaron logon ko khilaaya jo usake pichhe the.16 Lekin kahaani shuru howe hai shishyon ko apni kami ka ehsaas hone se; unhone jaana ki unke paas sirf paanch hi loaf bread hai, aur do chhoti machaliyaan hai: lekin itna dher jan me uske kon faaeda?”17 Shishye sahi the: unke paas kafi bhojan nahi raha, lekin unhonne Ishu ko jo kuch tha wohi diya, aur tab Unhonne chamatkaar dikhaya.
Kiya aapne kabhi mehsoos kiya hai ki aage ki kaarye ke liye aapki gun aur uphaar bahut chhote the? Hum mehsoos kara hai. Lekin aap aur mai Masih ko jo bhi hamare paas hae woh de sakte hae, aur vah humare prayaason ko dugna karega. Yadi aap Parmeshwar ki kripa par bharosa karte hai—to aapko jo bhi peshakash kare ke hai vah paryaapt hai—apke maanaviy khamiyaan aur kamajoriyon ke saath bhi.
Sachchai yah hai ki hum me se pratyek Devtaaon se ek peedhi dur hai—har ek Parmeshwar ka ek bachcha hai.18 Aur jaise hi usane yug ke dauraan donon profat aur saadhaaran purushon aur mahilaon ke saath kiya hai, isaliye Swarg ke Pitah humen badalana chaahate hai.
C. S. Lewis Parmeshwar ke badalne waale shakti ke i rakam se batais: “khud ko ek jivit ghar ke rakam kalpana karo. Parmeshwar us ghar ke punarnirmaan me aata hai. Sab se pehele, shaayad, aap samajh sakte hai ki vah kya kar raha hai. Wah naaliyon ko sahi kar raha hai aur chhat me leak ko rok raha hai aur isi tarah; aap jaante the ki un naukariyon ko kare ki zaroorat hai aur isliye aap aashcharyechakit nahi hai. Lekin vartamaan me vah ghar ko is tarah se dastak dena shuroo kar deta hai jo ghrna karata hai. … [Aap dekhte hai,] vah jis vyakti ke baare me socha tha usse kaafi alag ghar bana raha hai. … Aapne socha tha ki aap ek sabhy chhote kutir me bane the: lekin vah ek mahal bana raha hai. Wah aane aur apne aap se rahane ka iraada rakhata hai.”19
Humare Uddharkarta ke praeshchit ke balidaan ke kaaran, humen aage ke kaaryon ke liye taeyaar kiya jaa sakta sakta hai. Profat ne sikhaaya hai ki jab hum shishyvartta ke maarg par chadhte hai, to humen Masih ki kripa ke maadhyam se pavitra kiya ja sakta hai. Divye asantosh humen vishvaas me karye kare ke liye prerit kare sakta hai, achchhaai kare ke liye Uddhaarkarta ke nimantran ka paalan kare sakta hai, aur humare jivan ko Use namrata se de sakte hai. Ishu Masih ke naam se, amen.
