A message of Pope Dear Faithfull, “EVERY HUMAN LIFE HAS AN INESTIMABLE VALUE”

Even beyond emergencies such as the one we are all living now, it is about acting on cultural and educational levels for transmitting attitudes of solidarity, care, and welcoming to future generations, knowing full well that the culture of life is not a heritage exclusive to Christians, but rather one which belongs to all those who, striving for the building up of fraternal relationships, recognize the value of each person, even the fragile and the suffering,”

Unique and Unrepeatable, Valuable in and of itself, constitutes an inestimable worth.

Every human life, “unique and unrepeatable, valuable in and of itself, constitutes an inestimable worth. This,” underscored Pope Francis, “must be announced ever anew, with the courage of words and the courage of action. This calls for solidarity and love for the great human family, and for each one of its members.” Respect, defend, love, and serve life, every life, and every human life! It is only on this path that you will find justice, development, freedom, peace, and happiness!”

Fraternally,

A message of Founder Dear Readers, EUTHANASIA AND INTRINSIC VALUE OF LIFE Life in itself has no specific value to us, other than the way we can have experiences, and these experiences are what we find to be valuable. Humans do not put the value of life into the physical state of mere aliveness, but give it value through its ability to allow for experiences. Life, as a set of experiences that are good, is what has value, and our capacity to have them is the intrinsic value of life.

Value of life is giving Real Care, Love & Compassion

Life gains its intrinsic value from the ability to experience, and this value is not reducible to the physical, but the physical contains the potential for these experiences. The term physical is particularly broad here, because it would be false and discriminatory to try to contain physical capability as any standard, or to even estimate how experiences can come from it, because the possibilities here are endless. When value is attempted to be placed on something other than what we find valuable, it is not likely productive. The intrinsic value of a life is then exclusively linked to experiences. Our value of life and how it develops into the intrinsic value we assign to human life comes from how we value experiences. Positive experience is held as desirable and is separate from our physical being. Because we have a separation and have assigned that value to the experiential side, physical status is not an acceptable point for determining euthanasia. To do so goes against our inclination that value is derived from the experiences of life.

Rev. Fr. J. E. Arulraj [Founder of DMI & MMI]

A message of Provincial Dear Sisters and Brothers,

TO BE RICH BEFORE GOD Set your minds on the things are above, not on things that are on earth. Things of the world last a relatively short period of time and they cannot fulfil the longing of the human heart. Our life span is very brief on earth, the greater part of our life spent in pain and suffering. Nevertheless our heart has a tremendous capacity to seek the things of the world without paying any attention to the transcendent meaning of life. The human heart tends to become attached to worldly goods as the only one goal in the life, forgetting what is really important. Most of the time we are like rich man in the Bible. Our master Lord Jesus teach us that putting our hearts into the pursuit of wealth and worldly well-beings foolishness. Neither happiness nor authentic human life itself are founded on worldly goods. Our earthly life is short and fleeting. Taking advantage of the noble things of the earth so as to win heaven. Our passage upon the earth is a time of testing. The Lord himself has given it to us. As St. Paul rightly teach us, for here we have no lasting city, hut we seek the city which is to come. On a certain day He will come to settle accounts with us, to determine how well or ill we have administered his gift.

To be rich towards God is

To be rich in good Deeds, Rich in Generosity & Rich in Relationship .

Inasmuch in the goods of the world are intended for the glory of God. We should use them with a sense of detachments, not complaining either when these goods may be lacking. The absence of some good, if it is God’s will, should not take away our peace. We should know how to be happy and have inner joy in the community and in the mission. Let your heart be broad to support others than extending your hand to receive from others, because your joy will be double when you share with others. It is not only material things but also, spent your valuable time to listen others, your talents to teach when someone looking for it, doing good without expecting reward and remarks, silence and smiling when someone need your love and presence, when you practice in our life on the earth, we will be rich before God. To be rich before God, let us start today practicing all what we expect from others. There is no value of what we did in the past, let us show our best part today, because everyone wants to read today’s news. Our life is really nothing without love and care, Give to everyone but don’t expect back because it’s a Feel not Deal.
