A TIME TO CELEBRATE HUMANITY !
We are in the midst of the Season of Festivals !
As we conclude
forty days of prayer and fasting during the Holy month of
Ramzan,
we greet each other
"EID-MUBARAK"
in the universal embrace of love and brotherhood.
As we enter
nine-nights of song and dance,
the holiest Novena for many,
we greet each other
"HAPPY NAVRATRI"
and on its conclusion
"DUSSEHRA MUBARAK"
burning the effigy of all that symbolizes
evil, violence, hatred and prejudice.
As we observe
Brotherhood day on October 4th,
the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi,
the Patron of Environment,
we pray that each one of us may truly be
the Lord's Channel of Peace in this world.
As we celebrate
the International Day of Non-violence
on October 2nd,
the Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi
let us PLEDGE once again
to make our world
one of Truth, Justice, Non-violence and Peace.
Let's celebrate together
By putting an end to
violence, hatred, prejudice, sectarianism, injustice and untruth
that has darkened our lives....
Let us celebrate Humanity !
HAPPY SEASON OF FESTIVALS !!!
