I.

Paribhasha:
Aaradhana aur stuti hame vyapak pratit hoti hai. aaradhana prakritik parvriti hai aur har insaan ki samanye zarurat hai. Sadharan paribhasha me aaradhana ya archana ka matlab hai us mahan divye aur sawargiye prani ko mahan nishtha ke sath samman dena. Kuch samay lekar sochiye ki aap apne jeevan me kis ke prati nishthawan (devoted) hai. Kya mein ek divye / swargiye prani ki archana karta/karti hun ke nahi? Purane aur naye niyam me, parmeshwar hi upasana ke kender bindu hai. Nirgaman (Exodus 20:2-3) parmeshwar kehte hai ki mein hi tumhara parmeshwar hun, mujhe chod koi dusra nahi. Matti (Matthew 4:10) Yeshu ne kaha, apne parmeshwar ki upasana karo aur usi ki seva karo. Isliye aardhana karna matrr swabavik parvriti hi nahi balki Parmeshwar ki aagya hai.

hume archana aur stuti kyu karni chahiye?

Kewal Parmeshwar hi hamari upasana, stuti aur archana ke yogay hai. Who hi parmeshwar hai, hamara srishtikarta hai aur hume uski archana karne ki aagya di gayi hai. (Psalm 96:9 says, "Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth." Psalm 29:2 says, "Give unto the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.")

Archana aur stuti hume kaise karni chahiye?

Parmeshwar hume apne vachan me batate hai ki hume kaise archana karni chahiye. Yahona (John 4:23) says, "Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true

worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks." Yadi hume parmeshwar ki upasana sachai se karni
hai to hume yeh janna zaruri hai ki yeshu ne kaha ki MARG, SATAY AUR JEEVAN MEIN HI HUN, MERE BINA KOI BHI PITA KE PASS NAHI PAHUNCH SAKTA. Is se pehle ki aap Parmeshwar ki archana kare, jis reeti me weh chahta hai, aap ko us ke sath apna samband mazbut karna hoga, Yeshu masih par vishwas karne ke dwara ki weh Parmeshwar ka putr hai. Apne vicharon aur kriyaon se hum uttam reeti se Parmeshwar ki archana kar sakte hai. Romiyon (Romans 12:1-2) states, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God -- this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is -- his good, pleasing and perfect will." IV.

Archana aur stuti -hridye se niklne wala prem hai

Bahut log sochte hai ki kalisiya me kewal geet ga kar hum archana kar sakte hai, lekin yeh is sab se kahhhhhhi zyada hai. Yeh hamare hridye ki sthiti ke bare me hai jisme hum parmeshwar ki utsukta ke sath badai karte hai aur hamare liye uski marzi ko mante hai. Archana karna, humari Parmeshwar ke prati hamare pyaar ki abhivyakti (expression) hai. Us Parmeshwar ke liye humara aadar hai jo hume hameshe humari yogayta se adik deta hai.

Chahe aap apni archna ko Parmeshwar ke prati geet ga kar, koi saaj baja kar, nach kar, ya aur kisi madhyam se spasht kare, bas yeh yaad rakhe ki aap Parmeshwar ke upasana ke liye bulaye gaye hai apni hare ek pratikriya ke dwara, har din apne jeevan me. Parmeshwar pavitr hai, pyaar karne wala hai aur hamari sari bakti, upasana, archana ke yogay hai. "Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength." (Deut. 6:5)
