Kya Aap Kush Rahena Chahate Hai?

Elder Dale G. Renlund ke mutabik: “ vachan ke raaste shabd anubandhon kee ek shrrnkhala ko sandarbhit karta hai jiske dwara ham Masih ke paas aate hain aur Usse judte hain. Is vachan bandhan ke maadhyam se, hamen Uski shaashvat shakti tak pahunch praapt hoti hai. Yah maarg Ishu Masih mein vishvaas aur pashchaataap se shuru hota hai, iske baad bapatisma aur Pavitr Aatma praapt hota hai.”² Hum us vaade ko haar baar ko karte hai jab hum prabhubhoj ko lete hai.

Baptisma sambandhee vachan se shuruaat karke, ham apne pure jeevan mein aur adhik vachan banaate hain. Phir se, Elder Renlund kahata hain: “Vachan ka maarg mandir ke niyamon kee or le jaata hai, jaise ki mandir bandobastee(endowment). Bandobastee Parmeshwar ka pavitr vachan ka uphaar hai jo hamen Usse puri tarah se jodta hai.”³

Kabhee-kabhee jab ham vachan banaate hain, to ham unhen nibhaane mein asaphal ho jaate hain. Jab yah hota hain, aap vachan ke raaste par kaise vaapas kaa sakte hain? Main vachan ke raaste par lautne ke kuchh udaaharan baathna chaahata hoon.

Lagbhag ek mahine pahale, Mujhe ek laute mishanari se ek sandesh mila jo hamare saath sewa karta tha. Usne kaha: “Pichala samay kathin raha hai. Har din chinta aur avasaad(depression) se joojhana mujh par bojh daal raha hai aur yah bahut mushkil hai. Main akela aur bahut dukhi mehsoos karta hoon. Main kathinai se ladne ke liye jo kuhh bhi kar sakta hoon usmen shaanti aur aaraam ke liye hamare Swargiye Pita ke maargadarshan ke liye praarthna kar raha hoon. … Jab main praarthna kar raha tha, mujhe laga ki Aatma kee prerna ne mujhe bataaya ki mujhe apna daswa-hissa poora chukaane kee zaroorat hai. … Main ne Aatma ko bahut drdhata se mahasoos kiya, aur mujhe turant aisa karne kee ichchha mahasoos huee. Aisa karne kee ichcha ke saath mujhe yah prerna mehsoos huee ‘Yadi tum apna daswa hissa de do to sab kuch theek ho jaega.’ Main abhi bhi shaanti paane ke liye sangharsh kar raha hoon, lekin mere paas hamare Rakshak ki gawahi hai aur apni aagyaakaarita ke maadhyam se main us shaanti ko mehsoos kar sakta hoon aur pa sakta hoon jiski mujhe apne dil aur dimaag mein talaash hai. Main ne haal hee mein girjaghar mein vaapas aane aur jo kuch bhi karta hoon usmen Aatma kee talaash karne ka phaisla kiya hai.

Ab vah bahut achchha kar rahe hain. Aap Swargiye Pita se bhi shaanti ke liye prarthna kar sakte hain, lekin uttar aapke anumaan se bhinn ho sakta hai. Jab tak aap Rakshak ke baare mein jaanana chahate hain aur Swargiye Pita se prarthana karte hain, Woh aapke liye ek anukoolit uttar dega.

Pradhaan Thomas S. Monson sikhaata hain:

President Monson sikhaya hai: “Maransheelta mein ham jo sabse bada sabak seekh sakte hain woh yah hai ki jab Parmeshwar bolte hain aur ham uska palan karte hain, to ham hamesha sahi honge.”⁴

“Jab ham aagyaon ka palan karte hain, to hamara jeevan adhik khushahaal, adhik santushtidaayak aur kam jatil hoga. Hamari chunautiyaan aur samasyaen sahan karna aasaan ho jaega, aur hamen [Parmeshwar] ka waada kiya hua aashirvaad praapt hoga.”⁵

Jab mujhe bishop banane ke liye bulaya gaya, vah mere jeevan ka sabse kathin samay tha. Main apne shuruati 30 ke dashak mein ek yuva pita tha, lekin paarivaarik chunautiyon ke karan main aarthik roop se pareshaani mein tha. Mujhe koi samaadhaan nahin mila, aur mujhe laga ki chunautiyaan kabhi khatm nahin hongee. Main aarthik aur bhaavanaatmak roop se thak gaya tha. Mujhe apni aadhyaatmik shakti par bhi sandeh hone laga. Yah vah kathin samay tha jab mere stake president ne mujhe us kaam ke liye bulaya. Main ne phir bhi kol sveekaar kar lee, haalaanki yah kathin tha.

Meree patnee ka bhee stake president se interview tha, lekin vah haan nahin kah sakee aur na bhee nahin bolee, lekin aansoo bahaatee rahee. Woh pure saphte roee, Swargiye Pita se puchte hue, “Abhi kyon?” aur“Kya aap sachmuch pratyek vyakti ko jaante hain?” Usse jawab nahi mila, lekin mujhe agle Ravivaar ko bishop ke roop mein barkaraar kiya gaya. Usne ab Swargiye Pita se ve prashn nahin puche lekin chah varshon tak meri bulaahat mein mera samarthan kiya.

Ravivaar ko jab mujhe riha kiya gaya, meri patni ne sanskaar grahan karte samay ek aavaaz sunei. Aavaaz ne use phusphusaaya, “Kyonki aapke liye chalana bahut kathin tha, isliye main ne aapko pakadkar aapke liye chalne ke liye unhen bishop ke roop mein bulaaya.” Pichale chah varshon ko dekhte hue, use ehasaas hua ki anant lagne vaalee sabhi chunautiyaan ab raaste mein hal ho gai thi.

Hamne seekha ki jab ham sochte hain ki yah hamare liye koling praapt karne ka achcha samay nahin hai, to yahi vah samay ho sakta hai jab hamen us koling ki sabse adhik aavashyakata hoti hai. Jab bhi Prabhu hamen kisi bhi koling mein seea karne ke liye kahate hain, chaahe vah halkee ya bhaaree koling ho, vah hamari zarooraton ko dekhte hain. Vah shakti pradaan karta hai jiski hamen aavashyakata hai aur jab ham imaanadaari se sewa karte hain to vah ham par barasne ke liye aashirvaad taeyaar rakhta hai.

Aisee kai anye cheezen hain jo hamen vachan ke raaste par bane rahane se vichalit karti hain. Chaahe kuch bhi ho, madad ke liye apne dilon ko Swargiye Pita ki or modne mein kabhi der nahin hoti. Elder Paul V. Johnson ne humko sihkaya hai: “Jab ham shaitaan ka anusaran karte hain, to ham use shakti dete hain. Jab ham Parmeshwar ka anusaran karte hain, to Woh hamen shakti deta hai.”⁶

Raaja Benjamin Mormon Dharamshastra mein gawahi deta hain: “Main chahata hoon ki aap un logon ki dhanye aur khushahaal sthiti par vichaar karen jo Parmeshwar kee aagyaon ka palan karte hain. Dekho, ve sabhee cheezon mein dhanye hain, laukik(temporal) aur aadhyaatmik donon; aur yadi ve ant tak vaphaadaar bane rahate hain to unhen swarg mein praapt kiya jaata hai, taaki ve kabhi na khatm hone vaalee khushi ie sthiti mein Parmeshwar ke saath rah saken.”⁷

Meri patni kahati hai ki hamari shaadi hamen ek saath jodtee hai, aur is vajah se wah woh kaam kar sakti hai jo vah pahale nahin kar paati thee. Udharan ke liye, jab se vah choti thee, use andhere mein baahar jaane mein kathinai hoti thee, lekin ab yah kathin nahin hai kyonki main uske saath jaata hoon. Vah choti hai aur jab tak vah kursee ya seedhee ka upyog nahin karti, oonchee almaariyon tak nahin pahunch sakti, lekin main uske liye oonchee alamaariyon se cheezon tak pahunch sakta hoon kyonki main us se lamba hoon. Hamare Rakshak ka yoke apne oopar lena aisa hee hai. Jaise hee ham apne aap ko uske saath jodte hain, ham vah kaam kar sakte hain jo ham apne dam par nahin kar sakte kyonki vah vah kaam kar sakta hai jo ham apne liye nahin kar sakte.

Elder David A. Bednar ne kaha: “Pavitr vachanon ko banaana aur unka paalan karna hamen Prabhu Ishu Masih ke saath jodta hai. Sankshep mein, Rakshak hamen us par bharosa karne aur uske saath milkar chalne ka sanket de raha hai, bhale hee hamare sarvottam prayaas uske baraabar nahin hain aur uski tulna uske saath nahin ki ja sakti. Jaise hi ham mrtyu ki yaatra ke dauraan us par bharosa karte hain aur apna bojh uske saath kheenchate hain, vaastav Mein Uska yoke aasaan hai, aur Uska bojh halka hai.”⁸

President Nelson ne sikhaya:

Lekin apne aap ko Rakshak ke saath jotane ka matlab hai ki aapke paas Uski taakat aur mukti dene waali shakti tak pahunch hai.”⁹

“Parmeshwar ke vachanon ko nibhaane ka pratiphal swargiye shakti hain—vah shakti jo hamen hamare pareekshanon, pralobhanon aur dil ke dard ko behatar dhang se jhelne ke liye majboot karti hai. Ye taakat hamari raah aasaan karti hai. Jo log Ishu Masih ke uchch niyamon ko jeete hain unkee uchch shakti tak pahunch hoti hai.”¹⁰

“Anubandhon ka paalan karna vaastav mein jeevan ko aasaan banaata hai! Sanhi vyakti jo bapatism font aur mandiron mein vachanon banaata hai—aur usse rakhta hai—Ishu Masih ki shakti tak pahunch badh gaee hai.”¹¹

Mere priye bhaaiyon bahanon, kya aap kush rahena chahate hain? Vachan raaste me chalte rahe. Aapka jeevan aasaan, khushahaal aur aanand se bhar jaega. Hamare Rakshak hammen nimantran de raha hain, “Hamare paas aao, tum sab jo parishram karte ho aur bojh se dabe ho, main tumhen vishraam dunga.”¹² Woh hi jiwit Masih hai. Woh hamara bojh uthaata hai aur hamare jeevan ko aasaan banaata hai. Ishu Masih ke naam se, amen.
