Merry Christmas! – Rejoicing Savior’s Birth
December 25, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
The world rejoices the birth of Jesus Christ, the savior and preacher to mankind.
Lord Jesus humble background attracted gentiles in learning simple virtues in life.
The Lord called on the apostles to preach the gospel and enlightened them with truth about Almighty God and the divine revelations.
God’s creation is unique and meant to complement one another in perfect harmony with nature.
The omnipotent and omnipresent God is represented in every aspect of beings as the soul –
The pure and immortal Super consciousness in the form of brilliant light to dispel darkness within.
Upon Self-realization one attains Nirvana – liberation from birth and death cycle ending the karmic effects for heavenly abode experiencing eternal bliss.
Life – the manifestation of Supreme energy ultimately merges with the origin.
Soul searching otherwise internal focus guided intuitively rather than impulsively or through intellect is a holistic approach in understanding and accepting the concept of oneness.
The inherent positive and negative qualities in all are subject to discernment that defines moral character.
Capabilities and limitations are baseline characteristics that could be enhanced or overcome accordingly for better performance in life.
In general, care and compassion demonstrated in service to humanity exemplifies respect for life uplifting human spirit in altruism.
Contemporary problems across the globe attributed to vices such as greed, ego, envy, anger and hatred…produce turmoil and degradation.
Wars for territorial conquest and civil unrest in opposition to abuse of power aimed at economic gains are the predominant cause of suffering promoting self-righteousness eventually affecting the source with end justifying the means.
The mass protest against oppression, corruption, economic disparity and social injustice is culmination of human frustration reaching the tipping point to terminate authoritarianism.
Whenever apex authority misuse power for personal interest the system is affected down to the bottom losing credibility in the absence of integrity.
Acknowledgment of human plight with sincere commitment to alleviate pain would spread peace all around.
Freedom is birthright and denying the fundamental element violates basic principles generating hierarchy.
All are created equal and born to be free.
Further the endowment of distinctive talent needs to be identified and nurtured for individual and common benefit.
Refining innate abilities for constructive purpose would provide satisfaction to benefactor and beneficiary.
Success in life shared amongst all has pervasive impact planting the seed for continuous growth while empowering the powerless and the less fortunate in the society.
Lord Jesus teachings emphasized the power of faith in God and self-purification or redemption from sins beginning with recognition of wrongdoings, expressing remorse and submitting to reform becoming the beacon of hope for those straying from course in life.
Jesus Christ urged mankind to espouse God’s commandments – the moral guide for life enrichment devoting time and resources for universal cause.
Christmas is a joyous occasion commemorating the birth of Lord Jesus and a reminder to celebrate life.
Observing the holy day in prayer and adhering to traditions during Christmas and other religious events alone do not necessarily satisfy glorification of the respected entity in spiritual or any domain.
The reverence in religious or festive activity including other commemoration is reflected in honoring and emulating the guidance provided to save humanity and environment at large – the signature art of magnificent power.
Unity, peace and love are the sweet fragrances permeating life with progress and prosperity all over.
Wishing Merry Christmas, Peaceful and Happy New Year to all!
Peace to all!
Thank you.
