GOOD FRIDAY- KNOW THE RELIGIOUS SIGNIFICANCE

When is Good Friday?

Good Friday is the Friday when Jesus Christ was crucified (attached to a cross). Jesus was ridiculed and beaten because he said that he was God’s son.

He was made to wear a crown made from thorns. He had to carry the heavy cross on which he would be crucified, to a hilltop. This is the saddest day for Christians in the year.

Jesus rose a few days later, on Easter Sunday and went to Heaven. Easter Friday is the Friday after Easter.

Why is it called “Good Friday”?

• The word “Good” means holy in Old English, and Good Friday is also called Holy Friday.
• Maybe the word “God” turned to “Good.”
• Another explanation is that people believe that Jesus’s sacrifice allows for humans to also go to Heaven.

Good Friday Quotes

“On this Good Friday may we never forget the true meaning of Easter – ‘For when He was on the cross, I was on His mind.’”
-Unknown

“The cross was two pieces of dead wood; and a helpless, unresisting Man was nailed to it; yet it was mightier than the world, and triumphed, and will ever triumph over it.”
Augustus William Hare

“Good Friday marks the slaying of our Jesus. The unblemished lamb, the perfect sacrifice. He took our guilt and blame upon Himself so we could be with Him in paradise.”
-Unknown

Festival Customs

• Churches are never decorated on this day and left dark. God is absent on this day, thus the eternal candle is not lit.
• A cross lies alone on the altar.
• People reenact Jesus’ painful death.

Strange Rituals

• You cannot dance on this day in Germany.
• Kites are flown in Bermuda to show Jesus’s journey to Heaven.
• “Hot Cross Buns” which are fruit buns with a cross on top are eaten on this day.

MAHAVIR JAYANTI - A SHORT READING ABOUT SWAMI MAHAVIR -04 APRIL 2023

 SWAMI MAHAVIR- 24th Tirthankara (supreme preacher) of Jainism.

The original name of Mahavira was Vardhamana. He was born at Kundagrama. His father Siddhartha was the Chief of his clan. Siddhartha had two sons and Vardhamana was the youngest of the two. He was born in 539 B.C.

At the time of his birth the astrologers made a forecast that either he will be a great kin

g or a great saint. Mahavira spent his early life in the royal luxuries and was married to a beautiful princess, Yashodhara.

A daughter was also born to Mahavira. It is said that parents of Mahavira were the followers of Parsva Nath, and Mahavira was greatly influenced by the teachings of Parsva Nath. He developed a bent towards meditation while he was still a child.

At the age of thirty when his parents had died he denounced the world with the permission of his elder brother. For about 13 months he wore clothes but subsequently he cast off his clothes and started living naked.

During the next 12 years he lived on extreme self-morti­fication. All sorts of living beings gathered and crawled round his body but he continued his meditation. During this period he did not take any bath, washed teeth or take any medicine.

Often he went on without water for months. After all these hardships he attained knowledge at, the age of 43. After this he came to be known as Jaina Mahavira (or the conqueror), and his followers came to be known as Jains.

After his enlightenment Mahavira continued to preach his doctrines. For this purpose he travelled widely and had to face many difficulties. The initial response of the people was not quite favourable. It is said that at the country of Ladha people attacked him with dogs, but despite all these difficulties he did not lose cour­age and continued to preach his doctrine.

In course of time a large number of people became his followers. Mahavira was particu­larly lucky to receive patronage from the royal families. Rulers like Bimbsara of Magadha, Pradyota of Avanti, Dadhivardhan of Champa rendered him considerable help in spreading his message.

Although Mahavira was a contemporary of Buddha but it appears that the two never met each other. Mahavira died at the age of 72 at village Pawa in Patna district. It is said that at the time of his death he had about fourteen thousand disciples.

The major teachings of Mahavira  

1. Ahimsa which means non-violence- According to him every living being should be respected and no one should be harmed.
2. Satya means truthfulness- He believed that the path of truth should be followed which he applied on himself and others.                             3. Asteya which means non-stealing- He taught people not to take anything that is not given back.                                                           4. Brahmacharya means chastity- He taught not to indulge in sensual pleasures of the world.                                                                      5. Aparigraha means non-attachment and non-possession- It is referred to as complete detachment from people, places and material things.
