Melchizedek Purohiti aur Chaabiyaan
Girjaghar me purohiti ka adhikaar ek purohiti leadar ke nirdeshan me istemaal kiya jaata hai jo purohiti ki chaabiyaan rakhta hai.
Hum chuna hai Parmeshwar ke purohiti pe aur baat kare ke, jon vishay pe humse pehle teen jan bhaashan de dees hai jon hum log ke sikhaais kaise purohiti se auraton, jawaan mahilaaon, aur jawaan purshon ko ashish milta hai.
Purohiti ek divye shakti aur adhikaar hai jon ih bharosa pe diya jaata hai ki woh Parmeshwar ke kaam me istemaal aaega Uske ladkan ke faeda ke liye. Purohiti woh nahi jinhe ek purohiti ke daftar ki niyukti milti hai ya jo uske adhikaar ko amal me laate hai. Purush jon purohiti ko rakhte hai woh khud purohiti nahi hote. Jabki hum log ke niyukti rakhne waale purush ko purohiti nahi kehna hai, yeh theek hai ki unhe purohiti rakhnewaale kaha jaae.
Purohiti ki shakti dono jagah Girjaghar aur parivaarik sangathan me hota hai. Magar purohiti ki shakti aur purohiti ka adhikaar alag rakam se kaam kare Girjaghar aur parivaar me. Ih sab howe hai Prabhu ke aayojit kiye aadarshon ke mutaabik. Parmeshwar ke yojna ke lakshye hai Uske ladkan ke maoka do anant jiwan chune ke. Maransheel parivaarein zaroori hai ih yojna ke liye. Girjaghar hai uh dharamsiddhaant, adhikaar, dharamvidhiyaan pradaan kare ke liye jo parivaarik rishto ke anantta tak le jaa sake. Isliye, parivaar sanstha aur Ishu Masih ka Girjaghar ka ek milta julta sahara dene waala rishta hai. Purohiti ke ashirvaadein—jaise susamachaar ki sampurnata aur baptisma, pushtikaran aur Pavitra Aatma paana, mandir endowment, aur anant vivaah jaise dharamvidhiyaan—purush aur mahilaaon dono ko uplabdh hai.1
Jon purohiti ke hum log yahan baat karta uh Melchizedek Purohiti hai, jo susamachaar ke Punahsthaapna ke shuru me laotaaya ge raha. Joseph Smith aur Oliver Cowdery ki niyukti Peter, James, aur John ke dwara hois raha, jinhonne khud ghoshna kiya tha “ki unke paas raajye aur is yug ke samay ki sampurnata ki chaabiyaan hai” (Doctrine and Covenants 128:20). Yeh buzurg Devduton ne woh adhikaar Khud Uddhaarkarta se paaya tha. Aur jetna adhikaar ya daftar hai sab purohiti Melchizedek Purohiti ke hissa hai (dekhiye Doctrine and Covenants 107:5), aur uske paas shakti aur adhikaar hai Girjaghar ke sab daftaron ke upar duniya ke itihaas ke kisi bhi samay me” (Doctrine and Covenants 107:8).
Girjaghar me bade purohiti ka adhikaar, Melchizedek Purohiti, aur chota ya Aaronic Purohiti ek purohiti leadar ke nirdeshan me istemaal kiya jaata hai, jaise ek bishop ya pradhaan, jo purohiti ki chaabiyaan rakhta hai. Yeh samjhe ke liye ki kaise Girjaghar me purohiti ka adhikaar istemaal kiya jaata hai, hamein purohiti ke chaabiyon ka aadarsh samajhna chahiye.
Melchizedek Purohitit chaabiyaan jo raajye ki hai Peter, James, aur John ko diya gaya tha, magar usse purohiti ki chaabiyon ka punahsthaapna pura nahi hua tha. Purohiti ki kuch chaabiyaan baad me mili thi. Ih yug ke pehle mandir ke samarpit hone ke baad jo Kirtland, Ohio me hai, teen prophets—Moses, Elias, aur Elijah— ne “is yug ki chaabiyaan” laotaaye, jisme shaamil the Israel ke ikattha hone aur Prabhu ke mandiron me kaam karne ki chaabiyaan (dekhiye Doctrine and Covenants 110, jon rakam se Pradhaan Eyring abhi etna behlaate huwe bolis.
Sabse naami uddhaaran chaabiyon ke kaarye ka dikhta hai purohiti ki dharamvidhiyon ke kriya me. Ek dharamvidhi ek shaant kriya hai jo vachan banana aur ashirvaad ka vaada dekhaata hai. Girjaghar me sabhi dharamvidhiyaan purohiti leader ke swikriti se kiya jaata hai jo us dharamvidhi ki chaabi/jimwaari ko rakhta hai.
Ek dharamvidhi aam taur pe un logon dwara pura kiya jaata hai jinhe purohiti ke us daftar me niyukt kiya gaya hai ayse kisi ke aguwaai me jo purohiti ki chaabiyaan rakhta hai. Jaise ki, Aaronic Purohiti ke alag alag daftar rakhne waale prabhubhoj me bishop ke chaabiyon aur aguwaai me baatte hai, jo ki Aaronic Purohiti ki jimwaari rakhta hai. Wahi aadarsh purohiti ke dharamvidhiyon pe bhi laagu hota hai jisme mahilaaen mandir me kaam karti hai. Bhale mahilaaen purohiti ke kisi daftar ka hissa nahi hai, woh pavitra mandir dharamvidhiyaan puri karti hai mandir ke pradhaan ke swikriti se, jo mandir ke dharamvidhiyon ke chaabiyon ko rakhta hai.
Ek aur uddhaaran purohiti ke adhikaar ka uski aguwaai me jiske paas chaabiyaan ho hai purshon aur mahilaaon ka susamachaar sikhaana, chaahe ward ki kakshaaon me ya mission field pe. Anye uddharan hai woh ward me leader ki bhumika nibhaate hai aur purohiti ka adhikaar us bhumika me istemaal karte hai apne niyukti ke kaaran aur purohiti leader ke nirdeshan me jo ward ya stake me uski chaabiyaan rakhta hai. Yahi rakam purohiti ke adhikaar aur shakti ko amal me laaya jaata hai aur anand liya jaata hai Ishu Masih ka Girjaghar Antim-dino ke Santo ka me.2
Purohiti ka adhikaar Antim-din Sant parivaaaron me bhi amal me laaya jaata hai aur uske ashirvaadon ko anubhav kiya jaata hai. Parivaaron se hamara matlab hai ek purohiti-rakhne waala purush aur ek mahila jo vivaahit hai aur unke paas bachche hai. Hum adarsh rishto ke bhinntaaon ke bhi geenta hai jo maut ya talaakh se hota hai.
U siddhaant ki purohiti adhikaar khali uske aguwaai se sake chale jon u kaarye ke liye chaabi rakkhe hai Girjaghar me zaroori hai lekin u parivaar me purohiti adhikaar istemaal kare se nahi taalluk rakkhe. Jaise ki, ek pita jo purohiti ke adhikaar rakhe hai we apne parivaar me purohiti ke wohi adhikaar ke dwara aguwaai kare hai. Uske koi zaroorat nahi nirdeshan ya swikriti paae ke uske jiske paas purohiti ke chaabiyaan hai taaki uh parivaarik utsav ko pura kar sake. Isme shaamil hai parivaar ke sadasyon ke salaah dena, parivaar ki sabhaaen karna, apne patni aur ladkan ke purohiti ke ashirvaadon ko dena, ya apne parivaar ke sadasyon aur dusron ko changaai ke ashirvaad dena.3 Girjaghar ke adhikaari parivaar sadasyon ko sikhaate hai magar parivaar me purohiti ke adhikaar ka istemaal ki swikriti nahi dete.
Wahi siddhaant laagu rehta hai jab ek pita nahi maojood hota hai aur ek maa parivaar ka leader hoti hai. Woh apne ghar pe adhyaksh karti hai aur purohiti ke shakti aur ashirvaadon ko apne parivaar me laane ka zariya hoti hai apne mandir ke endowment aur sealing(bandhne) ke dwara. Jabki use adhikaar nahi hai purohiti ke ashirvaad dene ki jon sirf koi aisan dewe hai jiske paas purohiti ke kisi daftar ka adhikaar hai, woh parivaar ke aguwa ke anye sab kaam kar sakti hai. Aysa kare me, woh apan purohiti ke shakti kaam me laawe hai uh ladkan ke faeda ke liye jiske uh adhyaksh kare hai apan parivaar aguwa ke bhumika me.4
Yadi pita apne parivaar me apne purohiti ko badhaana chaahate hai, usee kaam se Girjaghar ke mission aage badhi. Melchizedek Purohiti rakhnewaale pitaaon ko apna adhikaar amal me laana chahiye “samjha bujha ke, dhaerye se, komalta aur vinamrata se, aur sachche pyaar se” (Doctrine and Covenants 121:41). Purohiti adhikaar ke uncha starr rakhna parivaar me istemaal ke liye bahut jaruri hai. Melchizedek Purohiti rakhne waalo ko sab aagya ke paalan kare ke padi taaki uske paas purohiti ke shakti rahi apan parivaar ke ashirvaad dewe ke. Unhe apne parivaar ke rishte mazboot banane chaahi taaki parivaar ke sab jan sake usse ashirvaad le. Aur maata/pitaaon ko parivaar me aur purohiti ke ashirvaad protsaahit kare ke chaahi.5
Ih rakam ke sammelan ke sabhaaon me, jab hum vinaashak mahamaari me apne maransheel chintaaon se thodi der ki chaao dhoondhte hai, hamein anant sachchaai ke mahaan siddhaant sikhaae gaye hai. Hum sabhi ko apne aankh “eh hi” cheez pe tikaane chaahiye taaki anantta ke sach ko paa sake jisse hamare shareer “sampurn gyaan se bhar jaae” (3 Nephi 13:22).
Uddhaarkarta jab dher jan ke sermon padhaais raha jon Bible aur Mormon Dharamshaastra me likha hai, uh bolis maransheel shareer aatmik gyaan ya andhkaar se sake bhare. Jabki, hum, gyaani hona chahate hai, aur hamare Uddhaarkarta ne sikhaaya yeh kaise karna hai. Hum log ke chaahi anant sach ke sandeshon ke suno. Uh hum log ke aankhi ke uddharan se batais, jisse hum log apan shareer me gyaan le ke jaata. Agar hum log ke aankh “ek hi cheez pe dhyaan” de—anye shabdon me, agar hum anant sach aur gyaan paane pe dhyaan de rahe hai—Usne kaha, “hamara pura shareer gyaan se bhar jaaega” (Matthew 6:22; 3 Nephi 13:22). Magar, agar hamara “aankh bura dekhe”—yaane ki, agar hum buraai dhoondhenge aur apne shareer me lenge—Usne chetaoni di, “aapka pura shareer andhkaar se bhar jaaega (verse 23). Anye shabdon me, hamare shareer me gyaan ya andhkaar ho woh nirbhar hota hai hum kaise dekhte—ya haasil karte—hai sikhaae gaye anant sachchaai ko.
Hum log ke chaahi Uddhaarkarta ke nimantran pe chalo anantta ke sachchaai ke dhoondho aur samjho. Woh vaada kare hai ki hum log ke Swarg ke Pita maange sab ke uh sach sikhaae jo woh dhoondhte hai (dekhiye 3 Nephi 14:8). Agar hum iski ichcha rakhte hai aur ek hi dhyaan rakh ke dhoondhe unhe, Uddhaarkarta vaada karta hai ki anantta ki sachchai hamein “dikhaai jaaegi” (dekhiye 3 Nephi 14:7–8).
Is bawajood, Shaetaan utaaola ho raha hai hamein uljhaane ke liye ya gumraah kare ke Parmeshwar ke purohiti jaise kriyaaon pe. Uddhaarkarta aisan “jhute prophets se saodhaan rahe ke bolis raha, jon bheda ke bhes me tumhaare paas aate hai, magar andar se kaat khaane waale bhediye hai” (3 Nephi 14:15). Uh hum log ke ih pariksha dees sachchaai chune me madad kare ke liye itne saare uljhaane waale seekh se: “Aap unhe unke kaam se jaanenge,” Usne sikhaaya (3 Nephi 14:16). “Achcha ped bura fal nahin laa sakta, aur na nikamma ped achcha fal laa sakta [hai]” (verse 18). Isliye, hamein apne parinaam dekhne chaahiye—“falon ko”—kaun se siddhaant sikhaae jaate hai aur kaun insaan use sikhaata hai. Yahi sabse behtar jawaab hai kaiyon ke liye jo Girjaghar aur uske siddhaanto aur kaaedo aur aguwaaon ke khilaaf bolte hai. Uddhaarkarta jon pariksha sikhaais wahi karo. Falon—parinaamo—ki or dekho.
Jab hum log susamachaar aur Ishu Masih ke punahsthaapit Girjaghar ke falon ki sochte hai, hum khushi manate hai ki kaise Girjaghar, apan zinda sadasyon ke jiwan me, America ke Pakshim Pahaado ke sthaaniye sabha se fael ke ab United States ke baahar 16 milyan se zyaada sadasye ho gaye hai. Ih badhanti ke kaaran, hum log dekha hai kaise Girjaghar sake zyaada sadasyon ke madad kare. Hum log aagyaaon ka paalan karne se, punahsthaapit susamachaar prachaar karne jimwaari ke pura kare se, Israel ke ikattha kare se, aur duniya bhar me mandir banae ke sehyog deta hai.
Hum log ke aguwaai ek prophet, Pradhaan Russell M. Nelson kare hai, jiske aguwaai ke Prabhu istemaal karis hai ih dui saalon ke uske aguwaai me jon hum log mehsoos kara hai. Ab hamein Pradhaan Nelson se sunne ka ashirvaad milega, jo hamein sikhaaega kaise hum pragati kar sakte hai Ishu Masih ke punahsthaapit Girjaghar me ih chunaotipurn samay me.
Hum gawahi deta hai ih sab baat ke sachchaai ke aur aapke saath praathna karta hai hum log ke prophet ke liye, jisse abhi hum sunenge, Ishu Masih ke naam se, amen.
