Pratham Adhyakshta ka Sandesh, March 2011
Achchaai ki Khoj Mein
Ek naye ghar ki khoj mein, ek jawaan Antim-din Sant dampati, hone waale padosiyon se us ilaake ke logon aur paathshaalaaon ke baare mein puch taach kar rahe the.
Ek mahila jinse unhonne baat ki thi ne apne bachchon ke paathshaala ke baare mein kaha: “Yeh to bahut uttam jagah hai! Yaha ka mukhye adhyaapak ek bahut badhiya aur achcha aadmi hai; yahan ke shikshak padhe-likhe, dayalu, aur milansaar hai. Main kitni khush hoon ki hamare bachche itni badhiya paathshaala mein padhte hai. Tum is jagah ko pasand karoge!”
Ek anye mahila ne apne bachchon ke paathshaala ke baare mein kaha: “Yeh bahut buri jagah hai. Yahan ka mukhye adhyaapak aatma-magan hai; yahan ke adhyaapak ayogye, kathor, aur amilansaar hai. Agar main is jagah se jaane ke kaabil hoti, main aysa ek chan mein kar leti!”
Maze ki baat yeh thi ki dono mahilaaen ek hi mukhye adhyaapak ke baare mein bol rahi thi, wohi adhyaapakon ke baare mein, aur wohi paathshaala ke baare mein.
Kya tum ne kabhi dekha ki log aksar woh paa lete hai jiski unhein talaash hoti hai? Achchi tarah se dekho, aur tum donon achchaai aur buraai dekh sakoge kisi ek insaan ya kisi ek cheez mein. Logon ne aisa hi kiya hai Ishu Masih ke Girjaghar Antim-dinon ke Santon ke saath uski shuruaat se. Jo achchaai ko dhoondhte hai achche aur dayalu log paaenge—woh log jo Prabhu se prem karte hai aur apni pure jiwan Uske aur apne bhaai bandhuwon ki sewa mein bitaane ki ichcha karte hai. Magar yeh bhi sach hai ki jo buraai ko dhoondhte hai unhein woh cheezein dikhaai dengi jo upyukt nahin hai.
Durbhaagye se, kabhi kabhi aisa Girjaghar ke andar bhi ho jaata hai. Jo ninda karne ke kaaran dhoondhte hai bahut creative, gunon waala, aur nishchayi hote hai. Woh aasaani se manmutaao se door nahin ho paate. Woh anye logon ke peeth-piche baate karte aur unmein khot nikaalte rehte hai. Woh kai varshon tak bure ehsaas ko dil mein rakhte hai, aur har mauka dhoondhte hai auron ko dukh pahunchaane aur nichaa dikhaane ke liye. Yeh Prabhu ko pasand nahin hai, “ki jahan jalan aur virodh hota hai, wahan ghabraahat aur har tarah ki buraai bhi hota hai” (James 3:16).
Pradhaan George Q. Cannon (1827–1901) Pradhaan Brigham Young(1801–77) ko achchi tarah jaante the, uske saath itne varshon tak kaam kiya, Barah Purohiton ke Parishad aur Pratham Adhyakshta mein uske salahkaar ke rup mein bhi. Pradhaan Young ke mrityu ke baad, Pradhaan Cannon ne apne jernal mein likha: “Mainne kabhi [Brigham Young ke] kaam, uske salaah ya uske shikshan ki ninda nahin ki ya usmein buraai nikaali apne dil mein, aur apne shabdon ya chaal mein to harkis nahin. Aaj yeh mere liye khushi ki baat hai. Mere mann mein jo ek khayaal hamesha rehta tha hai: Agar main Bhaai Brigham ki ninda karun ya usmein buraai nikaalun, ya use parkhu, main kitne door jaa paaunga; agar mainne aesa karna shuru kiya, to main kahan jaake rukunga? Mainne is maarg par jaane ke liye apne aap par bharosa nahin kiya. Main jaanta tha ki dharm ka tyaag aksar hota jab aatma ninda karne aur buraai nikaalne mein lag jaati thi. Anye log, jinke paas mujhse zyaada bal, buddhi aur anubhav hai, shaayad kai aesi cheezein karenge aur bure parinaamon se bach jaaenge par main aesa nahin kar sakta tha.”1
Pradhaan Cannon ka shaktishaali salaah par hamein jo is Girjaghar ke sadasye hai ko gaur karna chahiye. Parmeshwar ka vachan Masih ke aagyakaari logon ko “pavitra, … shaantipurn, komal, aur madhurbhaao ka, daya aur achche falo se bhara, bina pachpaat, aur kapat ka.” Jo log shaanti laate hai, “dhaarmikta ka fal shaanti se boya jaata hai” (James 3:17, 18).
Hamare paas ek chunaao hai. Hum dusron mein buraai dhoondh sakte hai. Ya hum shaanti laa sakte hai aur kuch kar sakte hai auron mein us samajh, nyaye ki bhaavna, aur chama ko dene mein jiski khoj mein hum khud hai. Yeh hamara chunaao hai; ki hum jo bhi dhoondhenge, hum use haasil karke rahenge.

Is Sandesh mein Se Shikshan
“Tum shaayad mehsoos karoge ki jo ek siddhaant ko tum padhaana chahate ho woh tumhare samajh se baahar hai,” note Teaching, No Greater Call ([1999], 19). “Haalaanki, jab tum use prarthna ke saath padhoge, use jeene ki koshish karoge, use padhaane ki tayyaari karoge, aur phir auron se batlaaoge, tumhari apni gawahi mazboot aur gehri hogi.”
Jaise jaise tum apne jiwan aur auron mein achchaai ko dhoondhoge is mahine, tum aur achchi tarah tayyaar rahoge is sandesh ko padhaane ke liye aur uski sachchaai ko bayaan karne ke liye.
