Genesis and Welfare of Humanity:
Many governments, U. N. agencies, Red Cross, social NGO, NPO and religious organizations participate in the magnificent, splendid and admirable tasks of social welfare with full devotion. The central and state governments in India have launched many projects to help the destitute, for instance, allocation of plots, free construction of home, house hold gas connections, free insurance policies, free pension to aged persons and educated unemployed, provide relief to farmers due to damage of crops, compensation to the families suffering injury or death due to natural calamities or accidents etc.
The civil or social organizations try to establish educational institutions, play grounds, libraries, hospitals, guest houses (inns), and buildings for orphans, blinds, physically handicapped and aged persons.
These agencies should operate with respect to culture and customs; the humanitarian response should use more local resources; the sharing of beneficiaries should be encouraged; it shall be better if they are accountable to both donors and persons achieving benefits; the provision for assistance must be impartial.
World ‘Humanitarian Day’ is observed on 19th August annually, dedicated to organizations involved in the virtuous concepts. Social affection and lenience of charity are praiseworthy humanitarian acts for voluntary help to the needy. It is the benevolent process of sharing the righteous concept unlimited passion.

Compassion, love and kindness are necessities, not luxuries. You must not lose faith in humanity.

All of us, the great or little has need for each other.
A trouble shared is a trouble halved. The wisdom of charity helps to discard ego and arrogance. The most valued and sacred instants of our life are filled with spirit of warm affection and delight.
The voluntary support through resourceful persons, when they give cheerfully and the recipient accepts gratefully, is benevolent goodwill and sense of generosity. It becomes a treasure of Divine boost during life and after life.
Humanity is Divine bliss:
We claim that Almighty Lord and soul are metaphysical, ontological, immortal and celestial powers of universe. There is only one God who has created all human beings in His own image. Thus the human race is the superb, subtle and supreme creation due to the graceful benevolence of God. He has bestowed unique qualities and multifarious duties to mankind for proper care, protection and progress of nature and living beings.
He also relates to advanced state of humanity with great moral values and spiritual emancipation. The more a man advances towards Divine, the more enlightened he becomes, and more he understands the purpose and meaning of life. Every beautiful soul is alive to justice, goodness, enthusiasm and devotion.
The angels show itself rarely and with difficulty. A remarkable quote conveys,’ we are not human beings having a spiritual experience but we are spiritual beings having human experience.
Individually we are like single drop, but together we are ocean.’ According to Mahatma Gandhi, ’Humanity is like an ocean, if a few drops of ocean are dirty, the complete ocean does not become dirty.’
The practice of religion generally includes commemoration of Divine actions under the guidance of saints (spiritual guide) through sermons, initiation meditation, sacrifices, public or social services and other aspects of human culture.
Let us determine to lead our life with highest ethical purity because spiritual progress is not possible without moral concepts of humanity. Dr. Triloki Nath Chugh Insan, Co-ordinator, Shah Satnam Ji Educational Institutions, Dera Sacha Sauda, SIRSA
