It is Easter today. The Resurrection Sunday. The resurrection of God, His message and the truth that ultimately truth alone triumphs. Then for centuries since AD 30, mankind to remember, observe and live Him as a way of life. The message of love, tolerance and forgiveness when observed and lived truly and deeply, life in itself manifests into a bliss of peace. Pain purifies. Sins to be forgiven. Today is yet again a reminder to live that message. Having observed fasting through Lent for a long 40 days starting on Ash Wednesday, having observed Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and the Silent Saturday – today, on this Easter Day, let’s pray for Peace for all. All the more when more than half of this world is ravaged by wars. In Yemen, Iraq and in Syria; a genocide in Darfur, children in masses being killed in Nigeria, and a massacre in a college campus in Kenya last week. Events which are passive news for many of us in BBC World or the international news section of the Times of India. Let this Easter Day be a remembrance of those in pain and a prayer for Peace.
