“Today is the birthday of Jesus, celebrated amidst December snow falls with lights and Christmas trees and prayers. However, it is useless to pray just one day and forget God the rest of the year. This is an empty show; it does not emanate from the heart. We are true Christians only when we live according to the teachings of Christ and practise them in daily life. Even if we follow any two teachings of His, that would be enough.
Christ said, “All life is one, my dear son! Be alike to everyone!” If we truly follow this, it would be enough to fulfil our destiny.”
