  8. What Gospel Talk about Judging? • "Judge not, that you be not judged. 2For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, `Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye? 5You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. 6 • "Do not give dogs what is holy; and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under foot and turn to attack you.(Mathew 7: 1-6 ) Why Gospel talks about Pigs and Dogs, inside Judging? Which kind of Animal are you ?

  9. Love Christianity in PRINCIPLE Not to Judge Others Pardoning Develop Abilities 4 Gospel

  10. John Paul II’s Pardoning Quality

  11. Love Christianity in PRINCIPLE Not to Judge Others Pardoning Develop Abilities 4 Gospel

  12. How to develop your abilities.., • Everybody is born with at least one ability. To enjoy the life at least one ability has to be practiced to form a skill. • When the skill is made for a noble purpose you become confidence on that ability and others will say you’re competent on that subject. • In the Gospel, it is very clear that one should develop his own ability to see miracles. Also Gospel warn for not developing the abilities. • Developing ability should be impar with the present day technology. For Christianity you should Develop many competence By Yourself!

  13. Can we develop our abilities alone.., The Feeding Of The Five Thousand (Matthew 14:13-21) (Written in Four Gospels) • 13 When Jesus heard what had happened, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. 14When Jesus landedand saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick. • 15 As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.” 16Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.” 17 “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered. • 18 “Bring them here to me,” he said. 19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the people.20They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 21 The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

  14. Converting Your Ability to a Skill? • If you were the person who was having breads and 2 fishes, will you give these five fish, if anybody ask? • If you don’t give, your ability will not become a skill. • In this miracle our religion clearly says, develop your ability without expecting a return. • Then your ability become a skill • By developing competencies in many subject will allow you to enjoy your life as well as enlighten other people’s life. This is one of basic pillar of Christianity. • There are so many examples in the History. Let’s analyse the recent examples:

  15. A lesson from Mother Teresa Mother Teresa (26 August 1910 – 5 September 1997), born AgnesëGonxheBojaxhiuwas an Indian Catholic nun of Albanian origin who founded the Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata, India in 1950. For over 45 years she ministered to the poor, sick, orphaned, and dying,while guiding the Missionaries of Charity's expansion, first throughout India and then in other countries In 1952 Mother Teresa opened the first Home for the Dying in Calcutta. With the help of Indian officials she converted an abandoned Hindu temple into the KalighatHome for the Dying, a free hospice for the poor. She renamed it Kalighat, the Home of the Pure Heart (NirmalHriday). Those brought to the home received medical attention and were afforded the opportunity to die with dignity, according to the rituals of their faith; Muslims were read the Quran, Hindus received water from the Ganges, and Catholics received the Last Rites. "A beautiful death," she said, "is for people who lived like animals to die like angels—loved and wanted.“ As usual, she also had to face People’s oppose, because her NirmalHriday was situated near the Kalighat Temple of Hindhus. Therefore Politician went to see her NirmalHriday and he saw how she treated to poor innocent people. When he came out he told to the people “ I promise I will ban this service on an one conditions. Condition is Your parents and brothers should treat these people”. Afterthat nobody went against her service. – One person multiplied the services.

  16. Love Christianity in PRINCIPLE Not to Judge Others Pardoning Develop Abilities 4 Gospel Body Conscious How we worship Our Belief Behavior How we establish connection with GOD The Creed Ten Commandments Our Father Saints Holy Mary We pray for others to become an One Family in the whole World 1 Baptism Whether many births, we believe all previous sins are washed off and we have to depend on God Initiation 2 Holy Eucharist Live wire (energy) for us to Live Happy Confirmation 3 Confirmed Catholic, you can live Happily . Become a messenger of God Only actions we should know to carry out to live Happily in this birth Confession 4 Living You are reminded that you need God. Anointing - Sick 5 6 Marriage God’s Society is eternal. (Towards the end of the World) God Link 7 Holy Orders God’s message is eternal. Similar to Respect and Worship, are we mixing our Body and Soul for our own excustics

  17. Challenges to Develop Your Conscious WHO ARE THE PEOPLE RECENTLY INFLUENCE OUR LIFE TO CHANGE KARL MARKS CHARLES DARWIN JOHN STUART MILLER RELEGION IS A OPIUM, ( INTRODUCTION TO THE CRITIQUE OF THE PHILOSOPY OF HEGAL) HUMAN IS A ANIMAL,( ORIGIN OF SPECIES) A HUMAN HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO WHAT EVER HE PLEASED TO DO ( ESSAY ON THE LIBERTY) • Without your Knowledge you will be a follow of Karl Marks. • If you look for auspicious time or if you worship anybody other than God. Love You should develop your Consciousas against the theories recently developed to distract your Religious Principles. You are Powerless!To become powerful you need; Love Love GOD Society You Worship Respect Your immediate Society is Marist Brothers, Then Students, then Society

  18. Most Critical Issues to Practise and Understand in Christianity • Pardoning, judging and developing your abilities according to present day technology • Pardoning and judging  Clearly shown in the actions of the Catholic Church. • you judge a person according to your TRUTH (MIND) • If your truth is fault, your judgement is faults • Develop countries legal systems are developed to handle this • According to your conscious, if anybody is wrong, it may be difficult for you to stay without reacting. That is why Christianity talks about Judging and develops Pardoning qualities. • If you cannot Pardon, Christianity say, “leave it to god or to mother Mary or to the saints. Just remove the prejudices from your mind. Under the 7 Sacrament only Living action point is to ask for Pardon for our sins from God. Similarly when we establish connection with God through ‘Our Father’, we extend the same Pardon towards others. Hence Pardoning is like a Engine Oil in a Vehicle. • Only gospel guides to develop your abilities with the modern day technology.

  19. Way of Living of People Changes.., Yesterday we travel in Bullock Cart. Today Bullock Cart are not use for traveling. Today we use motor vehicle. Tomorrow we might use Helicopter.Is God justify of changing our way of life? Future Past Present • Efficiency = The resources needed to do a job according to your mind set Actual resources you used according to Present Day Technology • If you’re mind is set for the old revolution definitely your efficiency will not match for the present era( you will be inefficient without your knowledge),then your productivity and effectiveness will be lower. • Ex: If you’re mind is set before the industrial revolution you might think you need 5 days to go from Negombo to Colombo by a bullockcart. But if you use a car ,you can go with in 1 hour. • Hence the efficiency in this case will be: • Efficiency = 5*24/1=168 • Communication Revolution • Agricultural Revolution • Industrial revolution What we can observe in ‘FUTURE’? You Like to go to Astrologer ! NO! Transport Revolution Energy Revolution (All people using telephones, Internet Email, storage devices like pen drive) Living Paradigm is Changing for more efficient life Efficiency= Are you afraid of Internet and Email? Is it against your Religion? What is your Mindset?

  20. Why Church encourage to use Latest Technology.., • Jesus Questioned About Fasting Luke 5: 6, Mathew 9: 14, Mark 2: 18 • How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? • No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. • Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved. • 39And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for he says, 'The old is better.‘ Analyze the Above Carefully. We does not want new wine. Tendency is to stay with old wine, hence we are fasting while the God says no need to fast, when He is with us.

  21. Drawbacks to develop your abilities • No clear Mind and Freewill. 2. Lack of Knowledge of the Present day technology. 3. Feeling that your ability will not support many people and you do not have money to do that. 1. Think about multiplication of loaves in the Gospel 2. Think about Parable of Talents/ How Jesus Christ pay Tax.

  22. Caterpillar Butterfly Change Management • Live alone. No principles. Not knowing religion clearly. • Dreaming to change. • Change effected. • After the change, easy to revert back to the original state. You have to focus. • You comply the change • Every morning, like the butterfly, take energy from the sunlight, you have to contact your super power 5th Stage – ADULT BUTTERFLY 1st Stage - EGG Every morning, like the butterfly take energy from the sunlight. Like us. Without knowing the facts of the religion. 4th Stage –BABY BUTTERFLY 2nd Stage - LARVA When it come out, it might get attacked by outside world. You have to overcome. Intention to CHANGE Most people THINK to change. But would not PRACTISE. Therefore, it is like the MENU. . .not FOOD. . . 3rd Stage - CHRYSALIS More difficult to remove your negative thinking with respect to actual concept

  23. ARE YOU A BUTTERFLY OR CATERPILLAR? • WE ARE LIKE CATERPILLARS. THROUGH ANY RELEGION, WE CAN BE A BUTERFLY. HOW TO BECOME A BUTERFLY THROUGH CATHOLISM IN SRILANKA? • BEFORE MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY, IDENTIFY THE WEAKNESSES OF OUR (SRILAKAN) SOCEITY, THEN SEE THE TREATMENTS THAT HAS TO BE GIVEN. • ARE WE READY TO COCOONISE?

  24. CATERPILLAR EFFECT • THERE ARE 3 OUTCOMES FROM THE CATERPILLAR EFFECT. DEPENDING UPON THE WAY THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT YOU WILL BELONG TO ONE CATEGORY. • CATAPILLAR CATEGORY ONE - INEFFECTIVE PERSON, CATERPILLAR TENDS NOT TO CHANGE HE IS LAZY EVEN TO LISTEN TO THE OTHERS- THE GENERAL STATEMENT OF THIS CATEGORY IS ‘I AM BUSY’ OR THEY FAIL TO ANSWER THE TELEPHONE OR THEY WILL NEVER RETURN A MISSED CALL, UNLESS OTHERWISE IT IS BENEFICIAL TO THEM • CATAPILLAR CATEGORY 2 - REACTIVE PERSON- THEY LISTEN , THEY UNDERSTAND BUT DUE TO VARIOUS PROBLEMS ( WITHIN HIM OR OUTSIDE TO HIM) IT WILL NOT GO TO THE COCOONE. • CATAPILAR CATEGORY NO3 - PROACTIVE PERSON-THEY LISTEN, UNDERSTAND AND COCOONISED AND WILL BECOME A BUTTERFLY ENJOYING THEIR LIFE. WHICH CATEGORY ARE YOU? IN ORDER TO FIND OUT YOU HAVE TO CLEARLY UNDERSTAND THE CATEGORIES.

  25. IS GOSPEL TALKS ABOUT THESE CATEGORIES? YES Category 1: Luke 8(5A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds of the air ate it up.) Category 2: Luke 8(6Some fell on rock, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants.) Category 3: Luke 8(8Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.)

  26. INTERCESSION (those who ask favours on behalf of others) – all world become one family • IT WAS NOT BY NECESSITY THAT MARY INTERCEDED FOR ANYONE BUT BY DIVINE CHOICE THAT SHE WAS ALLOWED TO MAKE INTERCESSIONS, AS SHE DOES AT THE 1 ST MIRACLE OF JESUS, AT CANA. SHE CAN NOT REPLACE OR DUPLICATE WHAT HER SON DID AS THE SAVIOR AND REDEEMER. • OTHERS INTERCEEDED TO JESUS ON BEHALF THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. (mat 15:22, luke 7:1-10). HUMAN INTERCESSION IS PART OF GOD’S PLAN.THE BEAUTY OF INTERCESSIORY PRAYER IS THAT IT AFFIRMS , THAT WE ARE A SPIRITUAL FAMILY. THE GOSPEL EXHAUST US TO PRAY FOR EACH OTHER(james5:16). MARY’S PRAYERS ARE JUST THE SAME Are you praying for anybody else?

  27. Through Mary towards Jesus, through Jesus towards God …. Isn’t our Religion? WATER INTO WINE (John 2 : 1 – 11) WHY? 1. And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2. And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. 3. And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. 4. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.6. And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. 9. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10. And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.11. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. Why Holy Mary saw, Wine is out of stock, despite the God’s Presence? Is it the Father’s Choice? Through Intercessionary Prayers, Christianity is leading to one spiritual family.

  28. MARYS MESSAGES THROUGH LAST 200 YEARS 1. Miraculous Medal (1830 – 11 – 07) 2. Lourdes (1858 – 2 – 11) 3. Fatima (1917 – 5 – 13)

  29. What is the Miracle Medal? In 1830 November 17, Mary was standing on a half globe with her feet crushing the head of a serpent. Around her a message was appeared saying “ O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee” On the reverse side of the medal, there was a letter “M” is surrounded by a cross. The ‘M’ is Mary’s initial, the cross is the Cross of Christ Below, there were two hearts, one Heart piercedwith a sword, and other Heart crowned with thorns. St. Catherine identified these Hearts are Mother Mary and Jesus Christ. 12 Stars depict the twelve apostles and represent the Church, a beacon to the World. Mother Mary said—”Have a medal struck on this model. All those who wear It round the neck will receive many graces. The graces will be abundant for those who wear it confidance. “ Sister Catherine died on December 31, 1876. In 1895 her cause for Beatification was introduced in Rome. She was beatified on May 28, 1933. When her body was exhumed, after fifty-seven years of burial,, it was found to be completely incorrupt and supple. Catherine was canonized a Saint on July 27, 1947

  30. In our Society, When you get a problem you tends to go to a Palm reader or Astrologer. • We don’t want anything like that, only thing is Miracle Medal given by Mary We like to go for a auspicious time Who is the Person, who told to wear Miracles Medal Shall we go to ‘Kattandiya’ The Medal received from Holy Mary • CathorineLaboure born in 1806 and she lost her mother when she was 9 years old. At 1830 she went to Vincent the Paul Communion to become a nun' When she was in Convent, she saw Jesus in Holy Eucharistic, daily • At 1833 Mary appeared to her and told about Miracoulus Medal and she confirm the security of people who wear the medal. Sister Catherine died on December 31, 1876. A disabled child who came to her funeral went off with full cure when he saw the CathorineLaboure’s body.When her body was exhumed, after fifty-seven years of burial,, it was found to be completely incorrupt and supple • Still her body is in safe 140 RueduBac Church • When we see her incorrupt beautiful body, we are reminded to wear the Miracle Medal • And the maximum worship in our life to be given to the Holy Eucharist

  31. Practicing Your Religion.., Identify your Light House.., A ship is sailing in a misty weather. In our life, we come to conclusion, that we are correct forgetting that there is Light House. How to find Light house in action in your life as Christian..? The captain of the ship show another ship is sailing towards his Ship and will cause accident He signal the other shipasking to Change the direction. The other ship inform him to change his direction. But the Captain refuse telling that he is the one who saw the danger and with few conversations the captain thrash his leg into the deck and shouted even his Ship collide he will not change the direction. The other ship answered, “My dear friend You have to Change your direction, because I am the Light House.”

  32. Willingness to Surrender • Suppose a man is in love with a beautiful woman, and the woman puts a condition that if he wants her in marriage he should give up drinking and smoking. The man would certainly comply with these conditions at least he gets her in marriage. • The Willingness to surrender to these conditions is prompted by the Love he has experienced through her.

  33. To follow like a child.., Enjoy the God’s will • Set your mind upon his kingdom, all the rest will come to you as well • That is why Mary of Bethany, who sat listening to him ,was prefered by him- so unfairly, it has often seemed to her sister martha who got on with the house work. • Anyone who wished to be a follower of mine must leave self behind, he must take up his cross, and come with me. Whoever cares for his own safety is lost; but if a man is left himself for my sake and for gospel, that man is safe • One of disciples said to him, ‘lord ,let me go and bury my father first’, Jesus replied, ‘follow me leave the dead to bury their dead’ • ‘i tell you this;unless you turn round and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom oh heaven. Let a man humble himself till he is like this child, and he will be the greatest in the kingdom in heaven.’ who ever doesnot accept the kingdom of god like achild will never enter it. • It is the total receptivity of the chidren he is praising

  34. When I break my own Will and do God’s Will what I can see • If it is a question of speaking to a person who has hurt me (according to my thinking), I can do so if God becomes my priority. • If I am ask to do a simple work, I can do it solely for God alone, in secret and in a hidden way. • When I do it only for God and God alone, actively my Will is strengthen and God becomes a very concrete reality to me and I began to love him in that situation.

  35. Major Concept behind our religion to resolve our Problems 1 2 3 Alone, No Service to anybody Identify the difference between these three scenarios? Service to People, but NO Rider. Horse Will decide where to go? Our life is mostly similar to this Difficult to obey the rider, horse like to have his own path. Allow God and Holy Mary to ride our Life. . . Service to People, Rider will decide where to go? When you follow the rider you will see that the qualities of surrender – Trust with the Rider along with your cheerfulness.

  36. Conditioning Mind Anxiety Ill Health If not Conscious Conditioning 1. Culture 2. Technology 3. Experience without theory If yes Happy Yourself and others Decided to Cocoonize Change – know the principles according to The Gospel not the Bible Culture Conditioning = Blind Worship towards Parents Formation of Cast (too much finding in South Asia) Too much using of TV, Radio, Computer game (Developed Countries) Everyday Check Carefully Developed Remove your Conditions Don’t Ask others to Change, but you Change first! • Most difficult things • Including the Exclude • Love your Enemy

  44. Matthew 15 Clean and Unclean 1Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,2"Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!“ 3Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?4For God said, 'Honor your father and mother'[a]and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.'[b]5But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God,'6he is not to 'honor his father[c]' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.7 • You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about • you:8" 'These people honor me with their lips,but their hearts are far from me.9They worship me in vain;their teachings are but rules taught by men.'[d]” Are you also same?
