Sab Deshon, Jaati, aur Bhaashaon
Hum log sakta bane, apan rakam se, Prabhu ke bhavishyevaani aur vaada ke pura kare kebhaagi—uh susamachaar ke bhaagi jisse duniya ke ashirwaad mile.
Priye bhaaiyo aur bahano, hum abhi haal me ek mandir sealing me officiate kara raha, COVID-19 ke daere ke andar. Duno dulhan aur dulha, mission se laute huwe vishwaasi prachaarak the, unke maata-pita aur unke sab bhaai bahan bhi saath the. Yeh aasaan nahi tha. Dulhan das(10) ladkan me se nao(9) number pe thi. Uske nao bhaai bahan bada se lekar chota ek saath baethe the, socially distance hokar.
Us pariwaar ko achche padosi ban ke rehna tha jahan bhi woh rehne jaate the. Toh bhi, ek ilaake ke log unse premi nahi the—dulhan ki maa ne kaha, kyunki woh Ishu Masih ka Girjaghar Antim-dino ke Santo ke sadasye the.
Uh pariwaar sab rakam se koshish karis school me dost banawe ke, sehyog dees, aur apnaawa jaae sake, par koi faeda nahi raha. Us pariwaar ne baar baar praathna kiya ki kisi ka dil badle.
Ek raat, us pariwaar ne apne praathna ka jawaab paaya, ek bahut anokhe dhang se. Uh log ke ghar me aagi lag ge aur uh pura jar ge raha. Magar kuch aur hua. Uh aagi se padosi log ke dil me daya aais.
Uh log ke padosi log aur sthaaniye school kapda, juta, aur ih pariwaar ke liye dher zaroorat ke saamaan batoris, jiske sab cheez khatam hoi ge raha. Kripa dekhaawe se samajh aais. Uh pariwaar aise toh nahi mangta raha uh log ke praathna ke jawaab aao. Toh bhi, uh log dhanyevaad dees uh log ke kathin anubhao se jonchi seekhis se aur anokhe jawaab jo mile the dil se kiye praathnaaon ke liye.
Sachche ke, jiske vishwaasi dil rahe aur dekhne laayak aankhi, Prabhu ke komal daya dikhaai deta hai zindagi ke chunaotiyon ke beech. Vishwaas ke saath chunaotiyon aur balidaan ko sehne se swarg se ashirwaad aate hai. Ih maransheelta me, hum thoda samay ke liye saait kuch khoega ya intazaar karega, lekin anth me hum log uh cheez paaega jon sabse matlab ke rahe. 1 Yeh hai Uske vaada. 2
Hum log ke 2020 dui sao saal ke samaroh pe la ghoshna shuru hoi ih ekdam shaamil kare la vaada se ki “Parmeshwar duniya ke har ek desh me Apan ladkan se pyaar kare hai.” 3 Hum sab ke liye har ek desh, jaati, bhaasha, aur logon me, 4 Parmeshwar vaada kare, vachan dewe, aur amantrit kare hai hum log ke aae ke Uske bahutaaish anand aur achchaai ke paao.
Parmeshwar ke pyaar ke swikaar kara ge hai sab logon ke liye sab shaastron me. 5 Uh pyaar Abrahamic vachan ke daera me hai, Uske bikhra huwa ladkan ke ikattha karna, 6 aur Uske khushiyaali ke yojna hum log ke zindagi me.
Dhaarmik gharane me koi ajnabi, koi pardesi nahi hota, 7 koi dhani aur gareeb nahi, 8 koi ke baahar “waala” nahi kehte. “Santo ke sange saathi naagrik” 9 hone ke naate hum log ke amantrit kara ge hai duniya ke behtar banawe ke, bhittar se le ke baahar tak, ek insaan, ek pariwaar, ek muhalla ek samay pe.
Aise howe hai jab hum log susamachaar ke jiyega aur baatega. Is yug ke shuruaat me, Prophet Joseph ke ek badhiya bhavishyevaani mila ki Swarg ke Pita maange hai ki sab koi sab jagha pe jaane paao Parmeshwar ke pyaar ke aur Uske shakti anubhao karo pragati kare aur badlaao laawe ke liye.
Uh bhavishyevaani yahaan haasil hui thi, Smith gharane ke lakdi ke ghar pe Palmyra, New York me. 10
1998 me nirmaan khatm hua, Smith ghar apne puraane buniyaad pe phir khada kiya gaya. Ih dusra manzil la bedroom utna hi bada hai 18 by 30 by 10 foot (5.5 by 9 by 3m) jagah hai jahan Moroni, Parmeshwar ke paas se ek vishaal sandesh dene waale ke rup me, jawaan Joseph ke paas aais raha September 21, 1823 ke shaam. 11
Aapke yaad hai Prophet Joseph konchi yaad karke batais raha:
“[Moroni] ne kaha … Parmeshwar mujhse kuch kaam karana chahate the; aur mera naam saari duniya, logon, aur bhaashaon mein achche aur bure ke liye jaana jaaega. …
“[Moroni] ne mujhse kaha ki ek kitaab kahin dafan hai, … ki Susamachaar ka pura siddhaant isme maujood hai.” 12
Yahan pe hum log thoda rukega. Hum log Parmeshwar jo Anant Pita hai aur Uske Putr, Ishu Masih, ke bhakti karta hai, Prophet Joseph ya koi admi ya aurat ke nahi.
Phir bhi socho kaise jon bhavishyevaani log Parmeshwar Apan sewako ke dewe hai pura hoe hai. 13 Kuch pehle pura hoe jaae, kuch baad me, lekin sab pura hoe hai. 14 Jab hum log Prabhu ke bhavishyevaani ke aatma ke sunega, hum log sakta bane, apan rakam se, Uske bhavishyevaani aur vaada ke pura kare ke bhaagi—uh susamachaar ke bhaagi jisse duniya ke ashirwaad mile.
1823 me, Joseph ek gumnaam 17-saal-ke ladka raha jon ek nawa aazaad desh me koi bahut naami gaao me nahi rehta raha. Agar ih sach nahi rehta, toh uh kaise soch ke bolta ki uh Parmeshwar ke kaam ke hathiyaar rahi aur Parmeshwar ke uphaar aur shakti se uh pawitr shaastr ke anuwaad kari jon sab bagal jaana jaai?
Ab, jabki ih sach hai, aap aur hum sakta gawaah bane ih bhavishyevaani ke pura hoe ke jaise ki hum log ke amantrit kara ge hai uske mumkin kare ke.
Duniya bhar ke, bhaaiyo aur bahano, hum me se har ek jon ih October 2020 maha sammelan me bhaag leta hai uh un sab deshon, jaati, aur bhaashaaon me se hai jiske baare me baat kara ge hai.
Aaj, Ishu Masih ka Girjaghar Antim-dino ke Santo ke sadasye 196 deshon aur samudaayo me rehwe hai, jisme 3,446 Girjaghar ke stakes hai isme se 90 me. 15 Hum log dher rakam ke ilaako aur vishwaasi sadasye ke taaqat ko pesh karte hai.
1823 me, kon socha raha hoi ki saal 2020 me khali teen desh me hi Girjaghar ke ek million sadasye se zyaada rahi—United States, Mexico, aur Brazil?
Ya 23 desh jahan har ek me Girjaghar ke 100,000 se zyaada sadasye hai—teen(3) North America me, chauda(14) Central aur South America me, ek(1) Europe me, chaar(4) Asia me, aur ek(1) Africa me? 16
President Russell M. Nelson Mormon Dharamshaastr ke “ek ajeeb chamatkaar” 17 bole hai. Uske gawaah log bayaan kare, “Iske sab deshon, jaati, bhaashaon, aur insaan jaani.” 18 Aaj, maha sammelan 100 bhaashaaon me uplabdh hai. President Nelson Ishu Masih aur Uske punahsthaapit susamachaar ke gawahi 138 deshon me dees hai aur dete hai abhi tak.
1830 Mormon Dharamshaastr ke pehla edition ke 5,000 copiyaan thi, lagbhag 192 million copiyaan Mormon Dharamshaastr ke sab mila kar ya uska kuch bhaag 112 bhaashaaon me prakaashit hois hai. Mormon Dharamshaastr ke anuwaad sab ko digitally uplabdh hai Jon abhi la Mormon Dharamshaastr hai usme duniya ke 23 bhaashaaon me anuwaad kara ge hai jon 50 million ya zyaada insaan bole hai, kul-mila-ke kuch 4.1 billion insaan ke bhaasha. 19
Chote aur saadharan tariko se—jisme hum sab ke bhaag lewe ke amantrit kara jaawe hai—mahaan cheezein pure hone hai.
Uddharan ke taur pe, ek stake sammelan me Monroe, Utah me, abaadi 2,200 thi, mainne pucha kitne log missions pe jaa chuke hai. Lagbhag sab ne haath upar uthaaya. Abhi haal ke saalo me, us ek stake se, 564 prachaarak sabhi 50 U.S. states aur 53 deshon me sewa kar chuke hai—har ek continent pe siwaae Antarctica ke.
Antarctica ke baat pe, Ushuaia me bhi, jon Argentina ke southern kone pe hai, hum bhavishyevaani pura hote dekha jab hum log ke prachaarak log Ishu Masih ke punahsthaapit susamachaar ek aisan jagah pe sheya karis jiske naam hai “duniya ke aakhri kona.” 20
Jon chitr hum log ke Saints 21 kitaab ke chaar volume ke cover se bane hai uh ek vishwabhar ke chitr dekhaawe susamachaar jiye ke natija ke jon vishwaasi Santo ke sab jagah mile hai. Hum log ke Girjaghar ke itihaas har ek sadasye ke jiwit gawahi aur susamachaar ke safar me gadaan hai, jisme shaamil hai Mary Whitmer, uh vishwaasi bahan jiske Moroni Mormon Dharamshaastr ke plates(patti) dekhaais raha. 22
January 2021 se shuru hoi, hum log ke teen nawa vishwabhar la Girjaghar ke megazine(patrikaaen)— Friend, For the Strength of Youth, aur Liahonasab ke amantrit karo hum log ke vishwabhar ke vishwaasiyon ke samaaj(worldwide community of faith) ke hissa bano aur usme sheya karo. 23
Bhaaiyo aur bahano, jab hum log Swarg ke Pita aur Ishu Masih me apan vishwaas badhaega, punahsthaapit susamachaar aur pawitr vachano ke sachchaaiyo me paaye ashirwaadon ke apnaega, aur lagataar ho rahe Punahsthaapna pe adhyan, vichaar, aur sheyar karega, hum log bhavishyevaani pura kare me bhaag lega.
Hum log apne aap aur duniya ke ek susamachaar ke tarika se badalta hai jisse sab jagah zindagiyon ke ashirwaad mile hai.
Africa ke ek bahan bole hai, “Hamaar pati ke priesthood ke kaam kare se usme aur dhiraj aur kripa aai ge hai. Aur hum ek behtar patni aur maa banne lagi hoon.”
Central America me abhi ke ek jaana-maana antaraashtriye business consultant bole hai Parmeshwar ke punahsthaapit susamachaar ko paane se pehle, woh bina koi maksad ke jee raha tha raasto pe. Ab uske aur uske pariwaar ke ek pehchaan, maksad, aur taaqat mila hai.
South America me ek jawaan ladka murgi paale hai aur uske ande bechta hai taaki uska pariwaar jon ghar banawe hai woh uske khidkiyaan khareed sake. Uh apan daswa-hissa(tithing) pehle bhare hai. Uh sake dekhe kaise swarg ke khidkiyaan uske liye sach me khule hai.
United States ke dakshinpachim me ek samaaj, Four Corners ilaaka me, ek Native American pariwaar ek sundar gulaab ke ped bois hai uh registaan me fulaae ke liye, susamachaar me vishwaas aur atma-nirbharta ke ek chinh.
Desh ke liye ladaai karke laote huwe ek saenik, ek bhaai jo Southeast Asia me rehta tha niraash raha ki zindagi me koi matlab nahi hai. Uske ek sapna se aasha mila jisme ek pehle saathe padhe la ladka ek prabhubhoj la tray leke uske bachane waale dharamvidhiyon aur Ishu Masih ke Praeshchit ke gawahi dees.
Swarg ke Pita hum log ke sab jagah pe amantrit kare hai Uske pyaar mehsoos kare ke, sikhe aur aage badhe ke padhaai karke, achcha kaam karke, atma-nirbhar sewa se, aur achchaai aur khushiyaali apnae ke jo Unke punahsthaapit Girjaghar me hame milta hai.
Jab hum log Parmeshwar pe bharosa kare lagta, kabhi kabhi apan andhera, akela, sabse asthir palo me, hum seekh jaate hai Uh hum log ke achcha se jaane hai aur hum log jetna nahi janta utna pyaar kare hai ya jetna kabhi hum apne aap se karega.
Yahi kaaran se hum log ke Parmeshwar ke madad zaroori hai lamba samay ke insaaf, baraabri, nyaye, aur shaanti laawe ke apan ghar aur samaaj me. Hum log ke sabse sachcha, gehra, asli kahani, jagah, aur apnapan tab milta hai jab hum Parmeshwar ke mukti dilaawe la pyaar mehsoos karta, Unke Putr ke Praeshchit ke zariye uske daya aur chamatkaar khojta hai, aur pawitr vachano ke dwara atoot rishte kaayam karta hai.
Dhaarmik achchaai aur budhimaani ki zaroorat hai aaj ke khalbali, shor, aur gande duniya me. Aur kaise hum log sakta insaan ke aatma ke taaza, prerit, aur and shikshit kare? 24
Haiti me pedo ko bona sao me se ek uddharan hai jisse log achchaai ke liye saath aate hai. Sthaaniye biraadri ke log, jisme hamare Girjaghar ke 1,800 sadasye shaamil hai, ne pedo ko daan me diya, aur saath milke lagbhag 25,000 pedo ko boya. 25 Itne saalo ke jangalo ko hara bhara karne ke abhyaan se 121,000 se zyaada ped bo diye gaye hai. Uska lakshye hai aur 10,000 se zyaada ped boye.
Aysa milke kare se chaao pradaan karta hai, mitti ko behne se rokta hai, baadh aane se rokta hai. Isse aas-paas sundarta faelti hai, samaaj badhta hai, bhook mitta hai, aur aatma ka poshan hota hai. Agar aap Haiti ke logon se kahenge kaun in pedo se fal todega, woh kahenge, “Jo bhi bhuka hoga.”
Duniya ke lagbhag 80 pratishat aabaadi dhaarmik rup se jude hai. 26 Dhaarmik samaaj prakritik vipattiyon me turant madad pahunchata hai tatha bhojan, gharo, shiksha, padhne likhne, naokri paane ki prashikshan ki kaabliyat me lagataar madad karta hai. Duniya bhar me, hum log ke sadasye, dost, aur Girjaghar kayi samaaj me madad karte hai sharnaatiyon ke sehyog aur paani uplabdh kare me, apang ke aozaar dete hai, aur aankho ka khyaal rakhte hai—ek insaan, ek gaaon, ek pedh ek samay ko apna kar. 27 Sab jagah, hum log mangta achcha maata-pita aur achcha naagrik bane, apan aas-pados me sehyog dewe, isme shaamil hai Latter-day Saint Charities bhi. 28
Parmeshwar hum log ke achchaai-buraai chune ke shakti dees hai—aur achchaai-buraai ke liye zimmedaar rahe ke. Prabhu aelaan kare, “Hum, jon Prabhu Parmeshwar hai, tumme aazaadi deta, isliye [tum] sach me aazaad ho.” 29 “Bandi log ke aazaadi” 30 prachaar kare me, Prabhu chutkaara ke vaada kare hai Apan Praeshchit aur susamachaar ke raasto pe chale se saansaarik aur dhaarmik bandisho se. 31 Saobhaagye se, ih mukti dewe la aazaadi uh log ke liye bhi hai jon mar ge hai.
Kuch saal pehle, Central America me ek priest hamme batais uh Antim-din Sant log ke “mare huwe logon ke baptisma” ke baare mein sikhe hai. Priest bolis “Ek rakam se sahi lage hai ki Parmeshwar sab koi ke maoka dei baptisma paae ke, chaahe uh log kab aur kaha rahis hai, chota ladkan ke alaawa, jon ‘Masih me jiwit hai.’ 32 . Priest ih bhi dekhis, “Devdut Paul baat karis hai mara jan log baptisma aur punarjiwan ke intazaar kare hai.” 33 Kisi aur ke liye(vicarious) mandir dharamvidhiyon ka vaada hai sab deshon, jaati, aur bhaashaaon me se koi bhi “maut, narak, ya kabr ke gulaam nahi rahi.” 34
Jab hum log Parmeshwar ke khoj leta hai, kabhi kabhi hum log ke praathnaaon ke unchaahe jawaab mushkil stithi se nikaale hai, hum log ke samaaj me laawe hai, andhera door kare hriday se, aur hum log ke dhaarmik sharan pahunchaae aur Uske vachano aur tikaau pyaar ke achchaai me jagah dewe.
Choti-choti saadharan baato se aksar badi badi ghatnaae hoti hai, lekin Parmeshwar ke chamatkaar har din hote hai. Hum log ketna abhaari hai Pawitr Aatma ke divye uphaar, Ishu Masih ke Praeshchit, aur Unke prakat huwe dharamsiddhaant, dharamvidhiyon, aur vachano ke liye jo Unke punahsthaapit Girjaghar, jo Uske naam se hai me paaya jaata hai.
Aasha hai hum khushi se Parmeshwar ke nimantran ke swikaar karega aur Uske vaada aur bhavishyevaani kiye ashirwaado ke pura karega sab deshon, jaati, aur bhaashaon me, Hum Ishu Masih ke pawitr aur paak naam se vinti karta hai, amen.
