“We Remember”
Srimati Karuna, Minister
Sunday Bulletin
We remember the lives of those who have journeyed ahead of us. We reflect on the soul’s passage from one plane of existence to another. We honor the life lived and service rendered during that soul’s sojourn on earth. Our connection to that previously embodied spirit becomes a living memory.
Our knowledge of the Truth of Life determines for us the value of living. And in the realization of life is solved the mystery of death.
“The Blessed Lord said: Many a time thou and I were born, O Arjuna. Thou hast forgotten, but I remember them all, O Parantapa. Free from the limitations of birth am I. I am the changeless Reality, the supreme Lord of all creation. Yet by the power of my own mystic law I come into being. O Bharata, whenever and wherever divinity becomes subdued and humanity struggles to emerge out of ignorance, then and there I incarnate myself. To assure salvation to the virtuous, to awaken the ignorant, and thereby to manifest divinity on earth, I incarnate myself from time to time.”
Srimad-Bhagavad-Gita
Translated by Swami Premananda
“Do this in remembrance of me.”
1 Corinthians 11:24
