Guest guest Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 Babaji: 25 DECEMBER 1983.. Today the International Festival of Christmas is ending. This festival was celebrated successfully, through the cooperation of all people. You have always been cooperating like this at this festival time. This festival is celebrated here regularly through the inspiration of all of you and it will continue like this in the future. That is my Blessing on all of you. Congratulations to you for your concentrated, wholehearted efforts. I have told you many times before that you must all keep your duty before you always. We must all have one purpose before us - to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of humanity. We must live for humanity and die for humanity. We all must offer our lives for the welfare and security of society. This must be our main aim, our bhajan (meditation, kirtan and service). This is our bhajan, this is our kirtan, this is our repetition of The Name. We should always proceed with this aim in mind. Today mankind has greatly degenerated. People are like puppets dancing for demonic leaders. We have to protect the people and lead them to progress. We must no lose courage... JAI MAHAMAYA KI JAI! 25 DECEMBER 1983.. The Kumaon Commissioner's Speech (Shri A.K. Das) As you heard just now, this was the celebration of the birth of Christ. All of you know about the resurrection of Christ and His message of Love. Every year we celebrate Christmas here - it is a very auspicious occasion. the teachings of Lord Christ was that we are all led by the Good Shepherd. Christ was crucified but he never died; He was resurrected and He had no word of condemnation or hatred toward those who killed Him. He prayed - "Please forgive them they know not what they do." Now Shri Babaji is here before you. His teachings are similar to those of Christ. The message of Christ was to love everyone, to have no hatred or jealousy toward anyone. Babaji teaches the same. Everyone must do his own duty -only then can we advance. I feel particularly honored by this opportunity to say a few words to you. I have a tremendous faith in Baba, particularly because we have His message of humanity here. So many foreign friends have come from all over the world. There is much difference between the ways of life and the religious beliefs but there is something unique here - that is why people come from all over the world and sit here. This great gathering of humanity teaches us that though we come from all over the world, we are all from the same spring of humanity. We should love each other, we should gain experience of each other's views and exchange views of our faiths. On this auspicious day, let us all pray to Lord Christ, to Baba, for blessing and for all the mental courage to perform our destined jobs honestly, properly and with dedication. Once again, I offer my prayers to Baba and to Lord Christ for all my brothers and sisters seated here... JAI MAHAMAYA KI JAI! ___________________ best regards Shad om namaha sivaya om namaha narayanaya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
