The best Easter wishes I ever came across.

Got the following Easter greeting as SMS from a friend.

He had no servants, yet they called him Master;
No degrees, yet they called him Teacher;
No medicine, yet they called him Healer;
No Army, yet the kings feared Him;
He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world;
He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him;
He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
Happy Easter.

Incidentally, I received this from a friend who happens to be a Hindu.
Which set me thinking as to how he came up with such a nice composition
which sort of sums up almost all that Jesus Christ stood for in a few words.
It would be tough for most Christians to sum it up so beautifully.

The chances of his having received this from someone are remote, because
Easter holds no direct relevance for him due to his not being a X'ian.
You won't wish a non-Christian on Easter, would you ?

So, chances are it is his original composition and if so, it is a brilliant piece of writing.

With this kind of understanding/tolerance/acceptance of other religions, no wonder
India is still in one piece, inspite of the rare Babri demolition or Gujarat carnage ?
