Importance of Unity

Majority of people including Christians all over the world believe, all living things are created by God.  The ultra advanced modern scientific community, with all forms of modern technologies could not prove otherwise, hard core atheists could not find alternate answers.  World’s super scientists working at CERN for the last several years, spending trillions of pounds could not create a life.  They proved all associated concepts but could not produce or explain that particular moment where life is created or generated. It appears this will remain as a mystery until God reveals those secrets to someone. But it’s very easy to terminate a living thing, remove that life from a human, developed countries have the technologies to wipe out not only just humans but whole generations or entire countries within minutes. 

Again as Christians we believe creation is purely heavenly and destruction is the opposite, which is Evil. If this is the accepted fact, are we doing the creation or nurturing job or have we all submitted ourselves to the opposite and started destroying each other.  We are all proud to be the descendants of Knai Thomman, the great Knanaya leader, who risked his own life and life of 400 people, only to spread the good news of Jesus Christ across unknown international boundaries. Are we really following that great man’s footsteps, are we making him any proud with our current activities. 

Humans are social animals, thus lives in a society and everyone has the right to associate themselves with any group or not, that’s any individual right, more appropriately everyone’s human right. But human behaviour in any group is restricted with that group’s rules and regulations which are either newly created or modified, for the long term benefits and sustainability of that group. 

As the case of humans, each association or organisation has its life cycle, it’s a long process, people coming together, agreeing on minimum objectives and developing basic rules and regulations, thereafter the long development process/stages, many spend their precious time and energy at every stage.  Currently it’s very difficult to co-ordinate two or more people, let alone an organisation but very easy to dissolve or destroy one.  Even though every association is a sweat of some one or a group’s hard work, a wrong step or move can easily kill it, one doesn’t need to know rocket science for this.

Like our human body, every part of it has a major role to keep us alive, every individual is important to the community, without every one of them, we cannot survive, then why we are unable to accept our own brethren. 

Everyone’s intention and willingness to serve the UKKCA is well accepted and appreciated, unfortunately we are restricted with limited terms and minimum positions. UKKCA is not a single association, it’s group of units and  each unit is as important, without units UKKCA will not sustain, so we need strong units. If we accept this fact, then there are sufficient opportunities for each one of us at the unit level. Another important factor is Leadership skills, knowledge and life experience, within the last two years we have already experienced the absence of those people without these qualities and skills, those people unable to stand for the organisation, those people running away from the entrusted responsibilities, do we need to try similar unworthy people again.  

Any unit’s strength is its members and higher the members, the stronger the unit. To keep the unity of a unit is not only the responsibility of leaders, but it’s the members. And the key to this is majority rule, which is the key stone for success in all democratic institutions. By accepting this majority rule, no one is marginalised nor minoritised, but respected and appreciated by each member of that group.

Each institution will be a success, if its members respect each other and work for others, honours and appreciations will follow as rewards for their selfless work. Thus we will make Knai Thomman proud and achieve the objectives of who created all of us.
