00:00:00.001 --> 00:00:04.289
And I should say, I should admit
and confess if you like
2
00:00:04.314 --> 00:00:06.508
that there was times that
3
00:00:06.533 --> 00:00:12.024
I thought that our neighbours
are people of this church
4
00:00:12.049 --> 00:00:14.141
of this denomination.
5
00:00:14.166 --> 00:00:19.213
And then as I progressed in my
life I saw perhaps my neighbours,
6
00:00:19.238 --> 00:00:21.431
our neighbours are all Christians
7
00:00:21.456 --> 00:00:23.564
regardless real denominations,
8
00:00:23.589 --> 00:00:27.025
being Roman Catholics, Orthodox, Anglicans.
9
00:00:27.050 --> 00:00:29.439
And as I progressed further
10
00:00:29.464 --> 00:00:35.392
I discovered that our neighbours are
not only the people of similar faith
11
00:00:35.417 --> 00:00:37.556
but people of any faith.
12
00:00:37.581 --> 00:00:40.431
And then when I reached this point
13
00:00:40.456 --> 00:00:43.658
I realized that we can go beyond.
14
00:00:43.683 --> 00:00:46.978
Our neighbours are not only people
15
00:00:47.003 --> 00:00:49.632
but everything that
has been created
16
00:00:49.657 --> 00:00:53.186
which makes our lives whole:
17
00:00:53.211 --> 00:00:56.702
animals, plants, trees,
18
00:00:56.727 --> 00:01:02.762
whatever makes our lives so
beautiful and so impressive.
19
00:01:02.787 --> 00:01:09.262
So I think seeing God's imprint
not only in human beings
20
00:01:09.287 --> 00:01:13.600
which is very important, and
I always like to say my friends
21
00:01:13.625 --> 00:01:16.944
and people that I envy Hindus
22
00:01:16.969 --> 00:01:19.479
who meet their, when they meet
23
00:01:19.504 --> 00:01:27.010
with namaste in adoration of God's
presence in somebody else's life.
24
00:01:27.035 --> 00:01:28.494
And we, I think
25
00:01:28.494 --> 00:01:32.456
we need to see God's presence
not only in human beings
26
00:01:32.481 --> 00:01:37.277
but everything that
is surrounding us.
27
00:01:37.277 --> 00:01:43.397
Because if we confirm
and accept that God is creator,
28
00:01:43.422 --> 00:01:48.335
He is creator of everything
visible and invisible and therefore
29
00:01:48.335 --> 00:01:51.068
a respectful attitude
30
00:01:51.093 --> 00:01:57.208
to us, everyone,
and everything is very important.
