Kya Aap Abhi bhi Ichcha Rakhte Hai?

Ravivaar ke, kai hafton ke stake sammelan assignments ke baad prabhubhoj mein bhaag lene ki taeyaari karte samay, mere dimaag mein ek dilchasp vichaar aaya.

Jaise hi priest ne roti par aashirvaad dena shuru kiya, mere dimaag aur dil par zabardasti dabae jaane se pahale maine kai baar aise shabd sune the. “Aur He, Anant Pita Parmeshwar, tumhe is baat ki saakshi de ki weh taeyaar hai tumhare Putra ka naam apne upar lene ke liye taeyaar hainaur usko sadaa yaadrakhte hue uski un aagyaon ka paalan karte rahenge jinhe usne unko di hain; jisse ki Aatma unke saath sadaa rahegi.”¹ Hamne kitni baar Parmeshwar ko dikhaya hai ki ham taeyaar hain?

Jab maine un pavitra shabdon ke mahatva par vichaar kiya, ichcha shabd ne mujhe jaise kabhi pahale na kiya tha waise prabhaavit kiya. Mere mann aur hriday me bahut saare meethi aur pavitra anubhavein chaa gayi, Uddhaarkarta ke praeshchit ke balidaan ke pyaar aur abhaar ke saath, aur mere parivaar aur mere liye Pita ki mukti ki yojna mein Unki mahatvapoorn bhoomika. Phir, maine paani par praathna ke shakti bhare shabdon ko suna aur mehsoos kiya: “Ki ve uski gawahi dein … ki ve hamesha use yaad karte hain.”² Main usi samay mein spasht roop se samajh gaya tha ki mere vachano ko nibhaana achchhe iraadon se adhik hona chaahiye.

Prabhubhoj mein bhaag lena ek nishkriy(passive) dhaarmik sanskaar nahin hai, jiska arth keval hamaari sehmati hai. Yah Masih ke anant Praeshchit ki vaastavikta aur kendriyata(centrality) ka ek shaktishalee yaadgaari hai aur hamesha Use yaad rakhne aur Unke aagyaon ka palaan karne ki zaroorat hai. Uddhaarkarta par dhyaan kendrit karne ki ichcha itni mahatvapoorn hai ki yah Girjaghar mein do sabse dohraae gaye shaastron ka kendriye sandesh hai—prabhubhoj praathnaaen. Swargiye Pita Apne Iklaute Putra ke maadhyam se hum me se pratyek ko apni ichcha se kya pradaan karta hai, is sachchai ko samajhne ke liye badle mein hamesha taiyaar rahane ke liye hamaare atyadhik koshishon ko jagaana chaahiye.

Kya hamaari apni aatmik neev Ishu Masih par thos roop se banee hai?

Yadi hamaari dhaarmik neev utni mazboot ya aadhunik nahi hai, ham saamaajik laagat-laabh vishleshan ya vyaktigat asuvidha soochakaank par apni ichchha ko aadhaar banaane ke ichchhuk ho sakte hain. Aur agar ham is kathan ko sveekaar karte hain ki Girjaghar mein mukhy roop se puraani ya raajneetik roop se galat saamaajik neetiyaan, avaastavik vyaktigat pratibandh aur samay ki pratibaddhataen hain, to ichchha ke baare mein hamaare nishkarsh samaan roop se trutipoorn honge. Hamen Social Media prabhaaviton ya tiktok ke prati utsaahi logon ke saath sakaaraatmak rujhaan ki ichchha ke siddhaant ki ummeed nahin karni chaahiye. Purushon ke updesh shaayad hi kabhi eeshvareey saty ke saath sanrekhit hote hain.

Girjaghar apoorn vyaktiyon ke liye ek sabha sthal hai jo Parmeshwar se prem karte hain aur jo Prabhu Ishu Masih ka anusaran karne ke ichchhuk rakhte hain. Vah ichchha is vaastavikta mein nihit hai ki Ishu Masih hai, jeevit Parmeshwar ka Putr. Is divy satya ko keval Pavitra Aatma ki shakti se hi jaana ja sakta hai. Isliye, hamaari ichchha seedhe us samay ke anupaat mein hoti hai jab ham pavitra sthaanon mein rahane ke liye pratibaddh hote hain aur jahaan Pavitra Aatma ka prabhaav maujood hota hai.

Achchha hoga ki ham Svarg mein ek pyaare Pita ke saath apni chintaon par charcha karne ke liye saarthak baatacheet mein adhik samay vyateet karen aur any aavaajon kee raay jaanne ke liye kam samay den. Ham apne dainik samaachaar feed ko pavitr dharmagranthon mein Masih ke shabdon aur unke jeevit prophets ke prophetic shabdon mein badalna chun sakte hain.

Ham apne Sabbath ke din ke paalan ko jo mahatv dete hain, ek eemaanadaar tithe dena, ek vartamaan mandir ki siphaarish rakhna, mandir mein upasthit hona, aur hamaare pavitra mandir anubandhon ka sammaan karna hamaari ichchha aur hamaari pratibaddhata ke pramaan ke sabhi shaktishaalee sanketak hain. Kya ham Masih mein apne vishwaas ko majboot karne ke liye ek satahi(superficial) prayaas se adhik dene ko taiyaar hain?

Swarg ke Pita hamen poori tarah se pyaar karte hain, lekin vah pyaar badee ummeedon ke saath aata hai. Vah ummeed karta hai ki ham apne ichchha se Uddharkarta ko apne jeevan ke kendr mein rakhenge. Uddharkarta sabhi cheezon mein Pita ke prati samarpan karne ki ichchha ka hamaara aadarsh udhaaharan hai. Wahi hai “raasta, sach, aur zindagi.”³ Usne apne ichchaa se hamaare paapon ka praayashchit kiya. Usne apni marzi se hamaare paapon ka praeshchit kiya, vah hamaare bojh ko kam karta hai, hamaare bhay ko shaant karta hai, hamen shakti deta hai, aur sankat aur duhkh ke samay mein hamaare dilon mein shaanti aur samajh laata hai.

Phir bhi Ishu Masih mein vishwaas ek vikalp(choice) hai. “Agar [ham] vishwaas karne ki ichchha se zyaada kuchh nahin kar sakte”⁴ unke shabdon mein, hamaare paas vishwaas ki yaatra shuru karne ya phir se shuru karne ke liye ek praarambhik bindu hai. Yadi unke vachan hamaare hirday mein beej ki tarah boe gae aur badi saavdhaani se poshit kiye gae, to ve jad pakad lenge, aur hamaara vishwaas aashwaasan mein vikasit ho jaega aur kaarye aur shakti ka siddhaant ban jaaega. Mormon Dharamshaastr badhte hue vishwaas ke liye hamaara sabse shaktishaali sansaadhan hai. Ichchha vishwaas ka utprerak(catalyst) hai.

Maransheelta, divye yojna ke anusaar, aasaan nahin hai aur kabhi-kabhi bhaari ho sakti hai. Haalanki, “[hum] hai, ki[ham] khush rahe”!⁵Uddharkarta aur hamaari pavitra vachanon par dhyaan kendrit karne se sthaayee(lasting) aanand milta hai! Maransheelta ka uddeshy hamaari ichchha ko saabit kartha hai. “The great task of life, [aur shishyatv ki keemat], Prabhu ki ichchha ko seekhna hai aur phir use karna hai.”⁶ Sachcha chelapan aanand ki poornata ki or le jaate hain. Kya hum chelapan ki keemat chuka sakte hai?

Vachanbadh maarg ek saadhaaran jaanch soochi nahin hai; yah dhaarmik vikaas aur Ishu Masih ke prati gahari pratibaddhata ki prakriya hai. Prati ek aagya, siddhaant, vachanein, aur dharamvidhi ka kendreey uddeshy Masih mein vishwaas aurbharosa ka nirmaan karna hai. Isliye, hamaare jeevan ko Masih par kendrit karne ka hamaara drdh sankalp lagataar karna chaahiye—sashart, paristhitijany, ya satahi nahin. Ham “har samay aur sab baaton mein, aur sab sthaanon mein Parmeshwar ke gawaah ke roop mein khade hone” ki ichchha se chhutti ke dinon ya vyaktigat samay ko nahin nikaal sakte.⁷ Chelapan sasta nahin hai, kyonki Pavitra Aatma ki sangati amooly hai.

Nishchay hi, Prabhu hamaare dino ke baare mein soch raha tha jab usne das kunwaariyon ke drshtaant ki shiksha di. Paanch buddhimaano mein se unhone kaha: unhone “Pavitra Aatma ko apna maargadarshak bana liya hai, aur ve dhokha nahin khaate hain,”⁸ jabki moorkhon ke deepak tel ki kami ke kaaran “bujh gae”.⁹ Shaayad Nephi ke shabd Girjaghar ke in waphaadaar sadasyon ka sabse achchha varnan karte hain: “Aur doosron ko vah shaant karega, aur unhen shaareerik suraksha mein le jaega, ki ve kahenge: Zion mein sab theek hai.”¹⁰

Shaareerik suraksha Masih ke bajaay saansaarik cheezon ki talaash karna aur un par bharosa karna hai—doosre shabdon mein, aadhyaatmik lens ke bajaay ek dharmanirapeksh lens ke maadhyam se dekhna. Jaise hum Pawitr Aatma ki aashirvaad apne zindagi mein chahate hai, hum vah paa sakenge. Usne sikhaya ki, “cheezoh ko vaisa hi dekhna jaisa ki vaastav mein hai, aur … jaisa veh vaastav mein honge,”¹¹ Keval “Pavitra Aatma ki shakti se [kya ham] sab baaton ki sachchai ko jaan sakte hain”¹² aur dhokha na khaen. Ham Masih ko apne jeevan ke kendr mein rakhte hain aur Uski aagyaon ka paalan karne ki apni ichchha ki pratigya karte hain, isliye nahin ki ham andhe hain balki isliye ki ham dekh sakte hain.¹³

Lekin moorkh kunwaariyon ka kya? Ve aadhyaatmik tel ka bartan le jaane ko taiyaar kyon nahin the? Kya unhone bas vilamb(procrastinate) kiya? Kya ve, shaayad, bahut aakasmik the kyonki yah asuvidhaajanak tha ya anaavashyak lag raha tha? Kaaran jo bhi ho, unhen Masih ki mahatvapoorn bhoomika ke baare mein dhokha diya gaya tha. Yah shuru se hi Shaitaan ka buniyaadi dhokha raha hai, aur kyon unki gawahi ke deepak antatah aadhyaatmik tel ki kami ke kaaran bujh gae. Yah drshtaant hamaare samay ka ek aadhunik roopak hai. Bahut se log Uddhaarkarta aur unki covenants ko Unke Girjaghar chhodne se bahut pahale chhod dete hain.

Ham us abhootapoorv(unprecedented) samay mein ji rahe hain jiske bhavishyavaani praacheen prophets ne ki thi, ek aisa din jab Shaitaan “manushyon ke mannon mein krodhit hota hai, aur unhen bhalai ke viruddh bhadkaata hai.”¹⁴ Hamaare bahut se yuva, aur ham mein se bahut se, ek online aabhaasi(virtual) duniya mein rahate hain jo manoranjan aur sandesh mein divye pahachaan aur Masih mein vishwaas ke prati shatrutaapoorn hai.

Ek bachche ke jeevan mein sabse shaktishaalee aadhyaatmik prabhaav pyaar karne vaale maata-pita aur daada-daadee ka dharmi udhaaharan hai jo emandaari se apni pavitra vachano ka paalan karte hain. Jaanboojhakar maata-pita apane bachchon ko Prabhu Ishu Masih mein vishvaas karna sikhaate hain taaki ve bhee jaan saken ki ve “apne paapon kee kshama ke lie kis srot kee talaash kar sakate hain.”¹⁵ Aakasmik aur asangat vachano ka paalan dhaarmik haani ki or le jaata hai. Dhaarmik kshati aksar hamaare bachchon aur pote-potiyon, badhti peedhee par sabse adhik hoti hai. Maata-Pita aur daada-daadee, kya ham abhi bhi taiyaar hain?

President Russel M. Nelson ne hamen chetauvni di hai “aane waale dinon mein, Pavitr Aatma ke maargadarshan, nirdeshan, saantvana aur nirantar prabhaav ke bina dhaarmik roop se jeevit rahana sambhav nahin hoga.”¹⁶ Yah hamaare deeyon ko trim karne aur hamaare dhaarmik tel bhandaar ko badhaane ke liye ek spasht aur achook chetaavani hai. Kya ham ab bhi jeevit prophets ke peechhe chalne ko taiyaar hain? Aapke deepak mein aadhyaatmik tel ka star kya hai? Aapke vyaktigat jeevan mein kaun se parivartan aapko pavitr aatma ke prabhaav ko aur adhik lagaataar banae rakhne mein saksham banaenge?

Aaj, jaisa ki Ishu ke samay mein tha, aise log honge jo peechhe mudenge, shishyatv ki keemat ko sweekaar karne ko taiyaar nahin honge. Jaise-jaise Uddhaarkarta ke Girjaghar aur Uska anusaran karne waalon mein kathor aur ghrnaaspad aalochana ki ja rahi hai, hamaare shishyatv ko hamaari aadhyaatmik reedh ko seedha aur majboot karne aur un par dhyaan na dene ke liye adhik ichchha ki aavashyakata hogi.¹⁷

Yadi hamaari aatmik neev Ishu Masih par mazbooti se banee hai, to ham nahin girenge, aur hamen darne ki zaroorat nahin hai.

“Dekho, Prabhu ko dil aur taeyaar mann ko zaroorat hai; aur taeyaar aur aagyakaari hi antim dino me Zion ke dharti ke achchaai ke khaai.”¹⁸

Ham sadaiv tatpar rahen. Prabhu Ishu Maseeh ke pavitra naam se, amen.
