A Short Speech About Chin National Day
Hihi Rev. Dr. Clifford Van Thang nih avoi(61)nak Chin National Day ah a chim mi kan vun langhter than mi a si.
A SHORT SPEECH ABOUT CHIN NATIONAL DAY
Rev. Dr. Clifford Van Thang on the 61st CND Celebration, Manila, 2009
Good evening beloved brothers and sisters of my fellow Chin people and our honored guests who come to promote the ceremony!
It’s a privilege to share some interesting stories about the Chin people on this historic and momentous event of the celebration of the 61st Chin National Day which falls on February 20, every year.
We, the Chin people left a place called Chinlung in China around AD 225 for westwards because of some intolerable situations. Many of us settled in the eastern side of Tio and Kaladan Rivers which are like our Jordan and some of them settled in the western side of the rivers.
The time of the first settlement in Chinland, according to pu Chawn Kio is thought to be around AD 1300. Indeed, the original Chinland is a bit wide. It is almost forty thousands square miles (Chinland 13,907; Manipur 8,628; Mizoram 8,139; and Nagaland 6,401). They ruled themselves for about six hundred years until the British colonization. Two third of the land is now in India and only one third is in Myanmar. It was split because of General Aung San’s clever persuasion and we still suffer until today because of U Nu’s wrong decision, which makes the Pinlung (also written as Panglong) Federal flower (planted Feb. 12, 1947) unable to bloom for almost 50 years, 1962-2009.
Originally the Chins have many but tiny different traditions and we are very rich in language; we have more than 50 different dialects, and we have many different tribal names as is recorded in Chin Hills Regulation 1896: “Chins includes Lushai, Kuki, Nagas , Chins in the Chin Hills and any persons who adopt Chin culture and language.”
The British extended its territory up to Chittagong hill track around 1760 and annexed Lower Burma in 1855. The British asked permission to construct a land route from India to Burma throughout Chinland. The Chin people who had never been ruled by any foreign nations, denied the plan being seen the future consequences.
Advantageously, the British fought Chinland from both India and Burma sides. The Chins are courageous and brave; were known as headhunters and good fighters; are simple minded and faithful. These are the identities of the Chins. Thus, the British officers want the Chins and Korkha alone to be their personal guards. If they possessed arms of the same quality, the Chins might win the battle.
At last, they made an agreement in 1888. The British agreed to let the Chins continue their Hereditary Chieftainship, (Sawbua:) in Burmese, and the Chins agreed to pay tax to the British. Politically we won, but economically we lost. We gave every good thing we had to foreigners.
You may ask, “We gave tax in kind (khuachiah rawlrel) to our chiefs. What’s the difference?” No, what we gave to our chiefs made our land and people rich; what we gave to foreigners made us poor.
From 1888 until 1948, exactly 60 years, we were under the control of the British government economically and we became poorer and poorer and they treated us as if we were slaves. If it is your turn, even if you are a widow or an old man, there is no exemption. You become a coerced porter like some of our people today. You get no pay, no pity. In that situation, future for the Chin people was unimaginable.
Knowing this and dreaming for human rights in Democracy and envisioning a bright future for the next generations, the first Chin Hill Union Organization was emerged February 20, 1928. Reaching the nadir of suppression, men of politics and patriotism from each Township like the late pu Len Dun of Vanzang, my native village, for example, reorganized and renegotiated their people to overthrow the British annexation along with the Hereditary Chieftainship. (Vanzang Tlang became a well versed phrase because of pu Len Dun’s well known leadership in this attempt. With some of his friends, they even encountered detention with many hardships).
After many struggling and sufferings of the leaders, the Chins Public General Meeting for Democracy was successfully held February, 1948 in Falam, former capital of Chin State. Almost 5000 patriotic delegates attended the momentous meeting.
Given compensation for some years, all the chiefs of the Chins willingly agreed to terminate their hereditary Chieftainship. Hence, the door of the long waited Democracy was open on the 20th of February, 1948, a day which can never be forgotten by the Chin people.
That is the reason why we are gathering once a year and celebrate the Chin National Day (not Chin State Day) joyously and as for my conclusion, I want every one of us to pray fervently and work out to find again soon our lost world of Democracy.
Thank you and may God bless all the Chin people around the world.

Everybody celebrates Valentine's Day but how much do you know about the saint from whom this day was named after?
1. Valentine was a Roman priest during the time of Claudius II who supposedly helped Christians who were being persecuted. Because of this, he was martyred on February 14, 269 AD. The legend goes that the priest, while in jail, sent messages to his friends saying, "Remember your Valentine."
2. Valentine was a priest that secretly married couples, defying the Emperor Claudius who had temporary forbidden marriages.
3. Valentine was a Catholic bishop of Terni who was martyred in Rome.
4. All, some or none of the above.

Philippines le Lairam
By Thawng Peng
Philippines
Hawile hna,
Kan biaruahnak hi ttio taak mi khua a lo cang ne hi teh aw! Nan rian le na kai a tam cio rua. Kan nih cu kan khar lio asi le ka zalon lio te asi. Kheng chung i rawl suah lo ahcun a bel ning in ei awk a ttha fam lo cu teh, tiah zeimaw te ka van in suah hna. Rak ei ulaw, a thawt le thawt lo ka chim tthan te u mu :)
Transformation Theology ka cawng. Kan saza pa nih, "Hmun pakhat khat ah, mibu cawlcanghnak pakhat khat ah i hnim u, i phum ulaw an sining dothlat u.. Cucu final paper caah ap te u," a kan ti. Mirang holh cun "emmersion paper" ti asi. Ka hawile hi minung pahra pahra, panga panga in an i kawp. A phunphun an tuah. A cheu cu, bar le night club ah a laam mi pawl, an "heavenly kingdom" a siang tuk mi pawl kha hehchet tiah interview an tuah hna. Kei tu cu keimah lawng in cawlcang ko ning, ka ti le "Philippines hi zeiruangah dah asi a fah, ziah hitihin sifak an tam" timi ka dothlat. Cu chung cun, khengkhat kan suah hna. Pawbi mi cu an khimh hna lai i, pawkau mi cu an khimh kho hna lai lo :)
Philippines hi island pathum ah an tthen - Luzon, Visaya le Mindanao. Regions 17, Provinces 81 le cities 136 tiin tthencheu asi rih. Nikum (2007) August thla ah khan milu an rel (census) i, 88.57 million (88, 574, 614) kan si, an ti. Cozah sinah register ai tuah lomi lamkam khuasa minung an tor rih. Minute pakhat ah nau chuak thar pathum peng an um, ti asi. An ram a bit tuk pin ah an cozah chiakha tuk ve kaw, ramchung minung rian an ting lo, an ei awk le an din awk tirawl i za in an chuah kho lo. 28 million hrawng hi nikhat ah dollar 1 nak tlawm a hmu mi an si. Minung an karhning nak in sifahnak/sifak mi hi rang deuh in an karh (the number of poor is growing faster than the population, tiah nan fiang deuh lai dah). Philippines ka rat lai ah, Philippines ka phan lai i, cacawn pah in rian ka tuan lai, ka rak ti. A zei nemmam cu; ramleng mi chim lo ramchung mi hmanh rian ting lo lawngte, an si ai. 2008 chungah hin milu 90.5 million kan phan lai, an ti rih hi aw! Cun, ramdang ah tor le cheng an choi rih. 2003 lio ah khan US ah a ummi, tagalog (Philippines official language) a hmang mi hi 1.3 million an si e, an ti.
Zeiruangah dah hi ti nan si a fah? tiah ka hal hna. Minung 10 lakah 8 nih, "Fa tamtuk kan ngeih ruangah asi," an ti. Cozah tthatlo zong an puh dih fawn. Fa tamtuk ngeihnak nih sifahnak a chuahpi, ti nan hngalh ko ah, ziah nan hrin nan i phih lo? ka ti rih hna. Micheu nih, "Fa tampi ngeih hi kan tradition asi e, fa tampi kan ngeih ahcun kan tar tikah cawmtu tampi kan ngei lai, cun anmah le anmah ai zohkhenhtu ding zong an tam lai," an ti. Cuti nan ti cu asi sawk ko lai nain nan tar hlan ah pei maw, sifahnak nih an thah dih hna lai hi, ka ti tthan hna.
Fa tamtuk an ngei, an cawm kho fawn hna lo. Hehchet tiah an fale kha kutdok in an vahter hna. Inn le lo ngei lo an tam tuk. "Street children" an ti i, cu hna cu 1998 ah khan 1.5 million hrawng an um. Kumhra tluk a rauh cang caah, atu ah cun 3 million or 2.5 million hrawng si dawh an si. Cu "street children" timi cu phunhnih ah an tthen i, children on the streets le children of the streets ti an si. Children on the streets hi 75% hrawng an si i, an pawcawmnak caah lamkam ah an i chok, lamtte kip ah an um i, tangka an khawl. Ih caan a cut in inn ah an lawi. Children of the streets hi 30% hrawng an si ve. An nih pawl cu lawi nak inn zong an ngei lo i, lamkam ah khua an sa colh. A cheu cu an i zuar beh. Anmah le anmah zong an i hngal i, te le fa he an i ciah.
Cun, micheu cu ram rum in a rami ramdang mi nih chikkhat nupi caah an hman hna i, fa an poih hna. An tthi la thai ttung hna lo i, cuticun an hmeihter men hna. A hnu ah tangka kuat le zohkhenh zong um hlei ti hlah. An cutzat in an nu tuahkel rian kha an i ot ve. Cuticun, milu an karh i, sifah nih a phuat hna. Inn le lo le chungkhar tling he khua a sa mi zong zeihlei hlah, fa tampi ngeih in kan i cawm lai, ti phun khi an si.
Lairam cuan usih, Laimi i zoh usih. Laimi zong hi fa tamtuk kan ngei, tiah ka ruah. Hleihnih hna hleithum hna fa ngei kan um. Cozah chiat hlei ah kan ram nih pawcawmnak caah zei ngai a chuahcanh lo. Pawcawmnak caah chuah awk thil tampi va um ko hmanh sehlaw kan fimnak, kan thilri le kan sining nih a phan kho rih lo. Sifak ram i sifak mi khuasak, cu i, fa tam tak ngeih hoi. Sunghhnih, sunghthum sungh cikcek, ti ttheu ai chuak hi mu. Zeidang cu va um ko rih seh, kan si a fahtertu hi fa tamtuk kan ngeih caah asi, tiah ka ruah ko (one of the reasons).
Micheu nih fahrin phih cu an duh bak lo, lainawn he ai khat an ti. Minung kan sperm ah hin ci a um va si kaw, cu ci thah cu lainawn bak pei asi cu, an ti. Micheu nih Laimi kan tlawm tuk le fa tampi ngeih kan hau, an ti ttheu. Laimi karhnak caah fa tampi ngei ning law, ka cawmkhawh hna lo tikah aho nih dah nan ka cawmpiak hna lai? Cucu ruah a hau. Fa tampi ngeih ttung i, a cawmnak lam ruah ti lo tu hi, lainawn ah ka ruah deuh. Fa tampi kan ngeih ruangah kan si a fak, kan si a fah ruangah kan zumhnak kan hlawt i, kan biaknak kan chuahtaak i, rasen tunkhat caah kan limhaang kan khaatter. Democracy va hmu usih law, zalon nun kan cawng kan ti hnga, a zalon zia le a nunzia kan thiam fawn ttung hnga lo. Ramdang bantuk in an "heavenly kingdom" kha pawcawmnak caah a hmangmi zong um te usihlaw theih lo asi. Children on the streets le children of the streets zong um tekhawh asi.
Cucaah, Philippines sifahnak le cu sifahnak a chuahtertu thil hna hi Laimi kan caah ralrinnak a kan petu ngaingai, an si. Philippines lawng zong a si phum lai lo, ramdang zong an si cio ko lai dah.
Chim duhmi cu: fa tampi ngeihnak nih sifahnak a chuahpi ahcun, ziah! hrinphih zong cu a ttha ko lo maw? Cu hrinphih cu teh sual asi maw? Lainawn teh asi maw? Laimi kan si a fahnak a ruang pakhat cu fa tampi ngeih hi asi ko, tiah teh na pom kho ve maw? Atu i asi rih lo hmanh ah hmailei ah cun effect a kan tuah te lai, tiah teh na zum maw? Hi zawn ah hin "transform" a hau rua, ka ti. Cucaah kan nih a cawng mi nih Transformation theology is not only to interpret God's message but also to help suffering people, to guide them in their struggle to change their situation an ti tawnmi khi ruah phu ngaingai asi, tiah ka ruah.
Dam te cio in,

Kei tu cu keimah lawng in cawlcang ko ning, ka ti le "Philippines hi zeiruangah dah asi a fah, ziah hitihin sifak an tam" timi ka dothlat. Cu chung cun, khengkhat kan suah hna. Pawbi mi cu an khimh hna lai i, pawkau mi cu an khimh kho hna lai lo :)
Philippines hi island pathum ah an tthen - Luzon, Visaya le Mindanao. Regions 17, Provinces 81 le cities 136 tiin tthencheu asi rih. Nikum (2007) August thla ah khan milu an rel (census) i, 88.57 million (88, 574, 614) kan si, an ti. Cozah sinah register ai tuah lomi lamkam khuasa minung an tor rih. Minute pakhat ah nau chuak thar pathum peng an um, ti asi. An ram a bit tuk pin ah an cozah chiakha tuk ve kaw, ramchung minung rian an ting lo, an ei awk le an din awk tirawl i za in an chuah kho lo. 28 million hrawng hi nikhat ah dollar 1 nak tlawm a hmu mi an si. Minung an karhning nak in sifahnak/sifak mi hi rang deuh in an karh (the number of poor is growing faster than the population, tiah nan fiang deuh lai dah). Philippines ka rat lai ah, Philippines ka phan lai i, cacawn pah in rian ka tuan lai, ka rak ti. A zei nemmam cu; ramleng mi chim lo ramchung mi hmanh rian ting lo lawngte, an si ai. 2008 chungah hin milu 90.5 million kan phan lai, an ti rih hi aw! Cun, ramdang ah tor le cheng an choi rih. 2003 lio ah khan US ah a ummi, tagalog (Philippines official language) a hmang mi hi 1.3 million an si e, an ti.
Zeiruangah dah hi ti nan si a fah? tiah ka hal hna. Minung 10 lakah 8 nih, "Fa tamtuk kan ngeih ruangah asi," an ti. Cozah tthatlo zong an puh dih fawn. Fa tamtuk ngeihnak nih sifahnak a chuahpi, ti nan hngalh ko ah, ziah nan hrin nan i phih lo? ka ti rih hna. Micheu nih, "Fa tampi ngeih hi kan tradition asi e, fa tampi kan ngeih ahcun kan tar tikah cawmtu tampi kan ngei lai, cun anmah le anmah ai zohkhenhtu ding zong an tam lai," an ti. Cuti nan ti cu asi sawk ko lai nain nan tar hlan ah pei maw, sifahnak nih an thah dih hna lai hi, ka ti tthan hna.
Fa tamtuk an ngei, an cawm kho fawn hna lo. Hehchet tiah an fale kha kutdok in an vahter hna. Inn le lo ngei lo an tam tuk. "Street children" an ti i, cu hna cu 1998 ah khan 1.5 million hrawng an um. Kumhra tluk a rauh cang caah, atu ah cun 3 million or 2.5 million hrawng si dawh an si. Cu "street children" timi cu phunhnih ah an tthen i, children on the streets le children of the streets ti an si. Children on the streets hi 75% hrawng an si i, an pawcawmnak caah lamkam ah an i chok, lamtte kip ah an um i, tangka an khawl. Ih caan a cut in inn ah an lawi. Children of the streets hi 30% hrawng an si ve. An nih pawl cu lawi nak inn zong an ngei lo i, lamkam ah khua an sa colh. A cheu cu an i zuar beh. Anmah le anmah zong an i hngal i, te le fa he an i ciah.
Cun, micheu cu ram rum in a rami ramdang mi nih chikkhat nupi caah an hman hna i, fa an poih hna. An tthi la thai ttung hna lo i, cuticun an hmeihter men hna. A hnu ah tangka kuat le zohkhenh zong um hlei ti hlah. An cutzat in an nu tuahkel rian kha an i ot ve. Cuticun, milu an karh i, sifah nih a phuat hna. Inn le lo le chungkhar tling he khua a sa mi zong zeihlei hlah, fa tampi ngeih in kan i cawm lai, ti phun khi an si.
Lairam cuan usih, Laimi i zoh usih. Laimi zong hi fa tamtuk kan ngei, tiah ka ruah. Hleihnih hna hleithum hna fa ngei kan um. Cozah chiat hlei ah kan ram nih pawcawmnak caah zei ngai a chuahcanh lo. Pawcawmnak caah chuah awk thil tampi va um ko hmanh sehlaw kan fimnak, kan thilri le kan sining nih a phan kho rih lo. Sifak ram i sifak mi khuasak, cu i, fa tam tak ngeih hoi. Sunghhnih, sunghthum sungh cikcek, ti ttheu ai chuak hi mu. Zeidang cu va um ko rih seh, kan si a fahtertu hi fa tamtuk kan ngeih caah asi, tiah ka ruah ko (one of the reasons).
Micheu nih fahrin phih cu an duh bak lo, lainawn he ai khat an ti. Minung kan sperm ah hin ci a um va si kaw, cu ci thah cu lainawn bak pei asi cu, an ti. Micheu nih Laimi kan tlawm tuk le fa tampi ngeih kan hau, an ti ttheu. Laimi karhnak caah fa tampi ngei ning law, ka cawmkhawh hna lo tikah aho nih dah nan ka cawmpiak hna lai? Cucu ruah a hau. Fa tampi ngeih ttung i, a cawmnak lam ruah ti lo tu hi, lainawn ah ka ruah deuh. Fa tampi kan ngeih ruangah kan si a fak, kan si a fah ruangah kan zumhnak kan hlawt i, kan biaknak kan chuahtaak i, rasen tunkhat caah kan limhaang kan khaatter. Democracy va hmu usih law, zalon nun kan cawng kan ti hnga, a zalon zia le a nunzia kan thiam fawn ttung hnga lo. Ramdang bantuk in an "heavenly kingdom" kha pawcawmnak caah a hmangmi zong um te usihlaw theih lo asi. Children on the streets le children of the streets zong um tekhawh asi.
Cucaah, Philippines sifahnak le cu sifahnak a chuahtertu thil hna hi Laimi kan caah ralrinnak a kan petu ngaingai, an si. Philippines lawng zong a si phum lai lo, ramdang zong an si cio ko lai dah.
Chim duhmi cu: fa tampi ngeihnak nih sifahnak a chuahpi ahcun, ziah! hrinphih zong cu a ttha ko lo maw? Cu hrinphih cu teh sual asi maw? Lainawn teh asi maw? Laimi kan si a fahnak a ruang pakhat cu fa tampi ngeih hi asi ko, tiah teh na pom kho ve maw? Atu i asi rih lo hmanh ah hmailei ah cun effect a kan tuah te lai, tiah teh na zum maw? Hi zawn ah hin "transform" a hau rua, ka ti. Cucaah kan nih a cawng mi nih Transformation theology is not only to interpret God's message but also to help suffering people, to guide them in their struggle to change their situation an ti tawnmi khi ruah phu ngaingai asi, tiah ka ruah.

Dear all,
Fimnak cu zeidah a si? kan hmuh dan adang cio men lai. Zeibantuk minung khi dah mifim na ti hnga? zeibantuk khi dah mihrut na ti hnga? Fimnak le hruhnak cu zeitindah kan thlaidan cio hnga? Atang lei ah ai ttial ko hih. Na rel dih bak cun ............
Fimnak: Lai mit in
Fimnak cu hngalhnak (knowledge), hmuhtonmi (experience), theihthiamnak (intuitive understanding) he a ummi a si. Cucu a chia a ttha a thleidang khomi hngalhnak kha kan ti lai cu. Mi cheu nih cun fimnak cu hngakchiat lio tein i chuah pi mi (Nuhrinthluak) a si an ti ve. Fimnak taktak cu kan nunphung (cultural), thil zohning or hmuhning (Philosophy) le biaknak (religious) chungah a um ti a si ve. Fimnak cu hihi a si bik tiah chim awk a ttha lo. Asinain hmuhtonmi a tam deuh le theihhngalhmi a tam deuh paoh ah fimnak he i neih deuh a si ko rua. Hngakchia nak cun upa cu fim deuh a si. Cu a ruang bik cu hmuhtonmi le theihhngalhmi a khah lo ruangah a si (hngakchia le upa paohpaoh ka ti duhnak a si lo, buaktlak in ka chim duh mi a si).
Tuanbia kan ngai ta hmanh lai. Tang nga a kai lio mi hngakchia pa te cu sianginn lei a panh thliahmah cang. Sianginn kai cu a nuam in a thei kho tuk. Sianginn in a lawi tawn ah hin panh sirsiar tein a lawi tawn. Pu tar pa nih panh sirsair tein a lawi tawn mi hngakchia pa te cu a zoh ah hin a lung ai hmuih tuk ve tawn (a rak hngakchiat lio ko khi a ngai rua). Ni khat cu hngakchia pa te cu ngaihchia ngai, lungnuam lo ngai khin inn le cu a hei panh. Pu tar pa cu a khuaruah ahar ko. “Ziah voidang bantuk a si lo ee, cu hngakchia pa te cu,” tiah amah le amah bia a hei i ruah. Pu tar pa nih cun bia a hei hal.
Pu tar pa, “Ziah, ka tu pa na ngaih a chiat ko, zeitindah thil a si ning, van ka chim tuah.”
Hngakchia pa, “Ka pu, kan sayamah nu nih hngakchia nak in upa an (kan) fim deuh tiah a kan chimh.”
Pu tar pa, “Cu ruangah maw na ngaih a chiat ko?” tiah a hei hal tthan.
Hngakchia pa, “Aw, cucu kei ka cohlang kho lo,” tiah a hei leh ve tthan.
Pu tar pa nih cun a hei thawh tthan i, “Ziah, cucu a hman mi pei a si ko cu. Hngakchia nak cun upa cu an (kan) fim deuh ko cu ta, ka tu pa.”
Hngakchia pa nih cun lukhun bu te khin, “Ziah, ka pu, a si ah Clinton nih President a ttuan khun. Ziah, a pa nih a ttuan lo?” a hei ti. Cu ah cun Pu tar pa cu a ar ko, van leh awk zei a thei ti lo, ti a si. Hi tuanbia in kan hngalh khawh mi cu cawn mi, thiamsannak a herh taktak zia kha a langhter. Cawnmi le thiamsannak a tam ahcun upa nak zong in fim deuh khawh a si ko.
Philosopher pawl nih “Fimnak timi cu theih hngalhnak na ngeihmi kha a tlak bik le a ttha bik in hmanthiam kha a si,” an ti.
Mah duhning in khua a ruat tu pawl (freethinkers) le mi cheu nih fimnak ahram pi cu a dikmi ruahnak (pure reasoning) le hmuhtonmi (experience) in hin a si bik ko an ti ve.
Plato nih cun “Fimnak taktak cu tthatnak kha ralttha tein le ningcang tein hman ding hngalh kha a si,” cun “Mifim bia an chim cu mi chimh ding thil an ngeih ruangah a si, mihrut bia an chim cu chim ding bia (bia sawhsawh) an ngeih ruangah a si,” a ti.
Hnabei donh i tlabelbul pi in a zei paoh cang seh tiah thil tuah lo te hna zong khi fimnak a ngei mi thinlung put a si,” tiah Thoreau nih a ti.
“Ka hngalh mi dih lak cu zei ka hngalh lo khi a si,” tiah Socrates nih a ti.
Taoism (related Chinese philosophical and religious traditions and concepts) nih “Fimnak a hmuh dan cu zeidah chim ding le zei caan ah chim ding hngalh kha a si,” a ti.
Hebrew zumhnak ahcun fimnak (wisdom) cu Pathian sin in a ra mi a si tiah an zumh. Cucu al awk ttha lo in an zumh, Proverbs 2:6, “Zeicahtiah Bawipa nih cun fimnak kha a pek hna i hngalhnak le hngalhthiamnak kha a cawnpiak hna;” 1:7; 9:10 ah fiang tein kan hmuh khawh. Bible nih fimnak a hmuh dan le vawlei lei (secular) nih fimnak an hmuh dan cu ai khat lo diam ai. Vawlei lei nih cun hmunhtonmi (experience) le theihhngalhnak (knowledge) lei hin fimnak cu cuai an thlai deuh. Biaknak lei (Bible) nih cun fimnak cu Pathian sin in a ra mi, Pathian nih a kan pek mi a si tiah a kan cawnpiak.
Buddha cawnpiaknak ah cun mifim mi cu tuahser mi tthatnak, biachim thiamnak le lungthin tthatnak a ngei mi kha an si, cun mifim mi nih cun a nuam lo mi, ahar mi thil kha an tuah, sihmanhseh a ttha, a dawh mi theitlai a chuahter. Cun mifim nih a theitlai a chia, a dawh lo ding mi thil kha an tuah lo ti a si. Buddah cawnpiaknak ah fimnak hi cuai an thlai nak a um len. Kan zoh hmanh lai.
• Mifim nih cun amah duh paoh in thil a tuah lo. Sihmanhsehlaw hihi a ttha maw, a ttha lo ti kha ttha tein a thleidan.
• Zaang en nak um lo in, dinfelnak tein le duhdan ngei lo tein mi a hruai, a zohkhenh tu hna kha mifim cu an si.
• Mihrut nih cun bia kha a chim dih tawn, asinain dai zirzair tein a ummi, huatnak le ttihnak chungin a luat mi kha mifim taktak cu an si.
• Dai tein a um mi paoh zong mifim an si hlei lo. Sihmanhseh tthatnak kha i lak in tthatlonak (evil) a hrial mi kha mifim tu cu an si. Tthatnak le tthat lo nak ttha tein a hngal kho tu kha mifim taktak tiah cohlan an si.
Hihi fimnak kong he pehthlai in Buddha cawnpiaknak tam pi lak ah tlawmpal te kan van langh ter mi a si.
Laimi tam deuh nih cun fimnak hi i chuah pi mi (nuhrinthluak) a si tiah kan zumh deuh ko rua. Kan i ti tawn mi cu ‘a nih cu, a nuhrinthluak ah a hrut, a fim tuk’ tihi a si. A nih cu a fim, a hrut ti hi a nu hrinthluak in maw kan zoh hnga. Tuchan (21st century) ah carel thiam lem lo mi, catang ngei lo mi, midang holh thiam ve lo mi, computer hmanh zei a si ti a thei ve lo mi hna cu mifim kan ti kho ti hna hnga maw? Ruah ding a har ko! Cawnnak a san deuhdeuh le hmuhtonmi a tam deuhdeuh paoh ah fimnak he i neih deuh cu a si ko lai dah. Cawn mi le hngalh mi tam deuh hrat ahcun fim deuh zong a si ko hnga. Cawn pah le hngalh pah ve lo ahcun mifim ah cohlang awk ahar ko hnga. Fimnak kan hmuh dan cu adang cio ko lai. Kapkhat lei ah nuhrinnak in a fim ve lo ahcun catang sang pi zong cu phanh a har tak ko lai, cun catang sang pi a phanh hmanh ah hawi cu a tluk deuh bal hna lai lo tiah an ti tawn. Cu zong cu ruah awk a herh ngai ngai mi a si.
Cun pin ah ruah awk ngai a si tiah ka ruahmi cu Laimi nih “kei cu ka hrut,” ti kan uar tukmi hi a si. Ka hrut tihi fim ngai ah a ruat mi kan tam tuk. Ka hrut ai ti mi pa khi a fim hlei lo, ka fim ai ti mi zong a hrut hlei lo. Mifim nih ka fim ai ti nak caan tam pi a um ko lai, cu ve bantuk in mihrut zong nih a ti ve ko lai. Ka hrut i ti paoh ah ka fim tihi ruah dih ding a si lem lai lo. Pakhat pa (a min chim cu um ko seh) nih a thawh i, “Ka hruh kai thei le ka fim ko lo maw?” tiah bia a kan hal. A leh zia ahar ngai. Cucu, mah le mah ka hrut i ti kha fim ngai ah a ruah i a si men lai tiah ka ruah. Fimnak hi Lai mit in zeitin na hmuh ve ning?
Careltu kan zapi in fimnak a kawl cuahmah mi lawng te kan si hna. Kan kawl dan le kan hmuh dan tu adang cio lai. Fimnak kan hmuh mi tete kha fek tein i tlaih hna usih law, cu lila cu kan ram le kan miphun caah thahnem santlai ah hmang cio hna usih. Cucu ka thlacamnak a si.
