1/6
Did You Hear Him?
Easter Wishes
Kamanayakkanpatti, Tamil Nadu, INDIAMarch 27, 2016, UTC 2:30 AM
Jesus of Nazareth
Did you hear his eloquences after resurrection?
Resurrection brought: peaceful silence.
Jesus died as fully “human”
He rose as fully “Human” – hitherto never happened
The gap between these events - death and rising
Is the mystery of salvation history…
Unfathomable: strife of good over evil.
Jesus lives as “fully human” and “fully divine”
This is our known and living faith
Our knowledge is faith-driven: not science focus.
Let’s review some of our woes of life...
Mockery over Divine: is Divine death
Human Conspiracy over People of God
For mad violence and control: Conspiracy is racy.

2/6
Holy Week is humanities mournful celebration
Of human and evil crime over life or lives
Crime over knowledge and Crime over Life: FIRST SIN and primal fall
We are striving for SECOND SIN: Crime of Life.
Since the first sin, we are searching (our knowledge) for our Identities
Opening ears and hearts to any junks for answer to life’s problem
Experience of “been driven-away”, unite us into multi-units
Corporate, Social, Racial, National, Cultural: endless units of throngs.
First sin took away Identity as God’s Children
Only through death, People of God become God’s Children
Live as People of God: You remain God’s Child, always.
Sins of the “Already” and the “Not-Yet”
“Not-Yet” is never to: leads us to Divine wrath and absence
Will there be a seeking God (Questioning Father, Sacrificing Son and Life-giving Spirit)?
Human wants to be Life-giver – “creator of life”
Through “their brand of resurrection” and become godly
Will make you part of Evil designers: instead.
Resurrection is existential (human)
Needed for humans more than divinities…
Existential for men and women like first century folks
We are existential by nature
What it means to be: before, now, later, after…?
Unending questions and counter answersMystery of sufferings created by us… Yet,
Jesus has achieved for us.
A promise of Resurrection is: positive existentialities.
Did Jesus need memorial monument?
All he had was other’s tomb chamber and tomb stone
Only dead have Taj Mahals: Others of faith.
If epitaph reflects life of oneself
What would be yours?
e.g. We sacrificed our today’s for your children’s tomorrows (Assam cemetery).
Jesus kept narrating – inspiration/experience of the Spirit
Messenger and the message converged
But that Final Moment? The abandonment?
God Seeking Minds of a desperate Human?
What was the Message? Scanty and almost nil.
Reduced to mute state of silence.

Life message from other(s)
His Epitaph: “Jesus of Nazareth, King of Jews”
Political trickery and religious travesty.
“Media is holy”
Will you accept? No Never.
Media of Christians - incriminated slave’s Bed of Death
Historical challenge – human shame and disgrace
Today’s Media reflects shame/disgrace:
Abdominally glorifies it.
Today’s teachers of poverty are
Masters of prosperities yesterday
Monsters of prosperities tomorrow: an outcry for
really poor.
Painters of black on otherwise innocent state.
Contrarians, Subversions and PerverteersNegative Strikes… like blitz of their forefathers,
Siege of Business around sphere of faith campuses,
Monopoly of “superior race” over nation,
Firm model formula “Evil = SVC” (Sex, Violence,
Conspiracies),
Talk of Pluralism is actually comprehension of
mammoth network,
The “devil-like pride” of men and women,
Hooking and netting by SVC – elders and
youngsters, not theirs,
“Faith over Evil” prevail “Faith over God” himself.Fear of Evil supersedes Fear of God: ‘worldly success’.
Religion of Life showcased as Religion of Death
Manufacturing Perverteers – in defense of Sham Network
Subversions are way of life – Successful competitive yield.
Gender alligators – consumers of entertainment packages
Frameworks of “human departments” – Facilitate convergence of Evil
Tailors and fabricators – invincible and almighty ordinary men and women
“Cognitive leaders” of future society and will power to dominate/subjugate
Endless litany of descriptive words of negativities… STOP IT please. Will you?
Grand Vision of throng: Crimes are superb (!) social control tools.
Retreat and the breathing hole
Judge for yourself – won’t mature you, absolutely
NEVER.
Corruptive and corrugative.
Fiddly and perilous: indoctrination and negativities.
Seekers of God: their “Theology of Humans”

Here is a sniffed review report of base education…
Constructs of Life is made on generation of lies.
Eating and Evolution
Eating as Mating
Eating as Metamorphosis
No eating attains nirvana akin to (Power/Energy: Sex) snake
Refusing? Not our men/women
Play Bo(d)y and Tom Girls – Gender Agenda
Transgression of human demarcation of identity
Not cooperative? Subject them to: Spiritual Terror (Demonization)
God – Creator, Redeemer, Sanctifier…
Mother, Saints, Angels, Demons…
What, What, What you say?
Evil is powerful, practical and therefore good: “Seek Evil” instead.
Where, Where and Where?
Where you find footprint of God… …Swap with our Evil constructs
Inside mind, body, spirit, objects… it’s just Science!
We are “Professional Seekers”
Came to submit our pains and sorrows
Found cognitive mines of crystals, costly and precious
Surround them: Siege them.
Why, Why and Why?
To be like Him. Yeah! Yes.
But not exactly - it is “To become Him”: God,
collectively.
How, How and How?
You are our leader (to anyone)
Teach us and we follow you…
You see we need Good people for our masks
Bad people – our real doers (fearless and
brave)
Great to you! Caps/Turbans off.
Endless Questions – Seekers actually don’t seek
God
Quests and hunts like snake for their preys
Beware in the Forest of Negativities: Only
negativities are allowed.
Christian Call
Witnessing and living the Cross and the
Resurrection - NOT switch blades.
In the world: maimed by unbelief of treachery.

Come back to me: Call of resurrected Messiah in…
Undisturbed spirit
Silence of heart
Unmolested mind
Cognitive Voices molest minds and hearts: can’t do with Spirit.
Listen NOT world of negatives
Singulizers, imprisonments, exclusions, confinements, solitaries…
Cacophonies… marauding voices… cattle behaviors… decisional polar sways…
No deception organizations: But community of persons
Or market talk to force that treacherous solitude
Find your inner solitude in the desert: the depth of humanity.
To every young ones…
Be “Mother’s daughter” and “Father’s boy”
You win love in family.
Instill understandings and acceptances.
Acceptances are not always expectations,
Failings too.Write personal pathways of blessings…
…among the “Bond of Positives”
Hidden beneath communication platforms: beyond existential absurdities.
The Easter Experiences and Manifests
Celebrating Easter with candle and eggs
Egg of Life is ‘Egg of Hope’
Easter Candle - a ‘light-flamer’ and its Easter exhortations
Our life is light.
We are sons and daughters of light: No Darkness and not Vulnerable
Empty tomb – ‘empirical truth about resurrection’…?
Tomb stone rolled out ‘by itself’ or ‘supernatural works’?
Linen cloths – actually the empty cloths, without its owner…!
Morning Light – beginning of day – dawn of life back on earth
Body scars on Messiah – five wounds and touchy confession “My Lord, My God”
Witnesses or experiencers of Resurrection: women and men of Galilee.
Meet our First Easter Experiencers…
No trace of triumphalism, but
Moment and movements of Surprises: all behind doors
People of Galilee: went, saw, believed, said,witnessed…
Messiah as gardener, Emmaus walker, Shoreline breakfast vendor,
room intruder…
Disciples began seeing Jesus – innumerous encounters: as Messiah
Silence of Messiah: less questions, more reflective witnesses
Christian triumph over Evil fang: death
Messiah made this life – glimpses of new life
No fear, No terror for truly/humanly spirituals
Beyond that existential door: death.

Forget not assuring questions of Resurrected person
Why are you afraid?
Why do you seek me?
Do you love me? Do you love me more than these?
What have you got (Catch)?
Touch and see – don’t you believe me?
What have you heard?
Did you hear him?
Do you hear him now?
Questions by Divine person: Master of all existence.
We are People of Hope – Not Hopelessness
We are People by Faith – Not Presumptions
We are People Love – Not professional or scientific
We are People by Cross – Not any other symbols
Life expects love
Love expects life (from epitaph at K.Patti: “Life lives in Love, Love lives in Life”).
Our Formula of Resurrected Life: Faith, Hope and Love.
