Recently I had been to Church with my American friend. We had a great discussion on Bible and Shrimadbhagvadgita, which inspired me to write this blog. Here I am scribbling the some of the extracts on Discipleships as deciphered by Jesus and I am trying it relate to Shrimadbhagvadgita." And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple": Luke 14:27
Here the refers the CROSS to the obstacles in JATAK's life where, if the person cannot be JESUS's true disciple if he does not aim and learn to overcome his own life's obstacles.
this phrase made me to write in Hindi
" HAAN PRERNA LI HEI MAINE INN PARVATO SE,
MUSHKIL SAMAY MEIN ADAG REHNE KI"
In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple" Luke 14:33
Here Luke conveys not of giving up the life, but to remain "ALIPT" from the materialistic approach of this world by being in this world....Shrimadbhagvadgita says " Karmanye Vaadhika raste, maa faleshu kadachana....."
karma karte jao, fal ki asha mat rakho.......the same message this phrase conveys...... what a resemblence!!!!This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my discipleship: John 15:8
It is true that if you have to be your father's child then you have to follow his principles. Here we can be a true chileren of our Father ( Lord) only when if we ourselves in equal sense to everybody... After the Church prayers, someone asked me, are you Christian? I said no and told that I follow Hindu religion. TO their astonishment, I was asked, then why I am here, I just said only one sentence " VASUDHEIV KUTUMMBKAM"
This only made me to realize, it doesn't matter, whether you are Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddha, all leads to one path.....
SARVE BHAVANTU SUKHINAH SARVE SANTU NIRAMYAHA,
SARVE BHADRANI PASHYANTU, MA KASCHIDH DUKHBHAGBHAVAIT
FRIENDS, my next post will be in continuation of discipleship which will have amrit of Shrimad bhagvad gita and Bible.......please be patient for few days.........
