ZOLAI KHANTOH NADING

‘Laibu manphatna’ cih ding a kilawm mahmah ahih hangin Zolai tawh kigelh laibu tam leh Zolai khantohna khat suak veve ding ahih manin a thulu pen khial lua sam lo dingin ngaihsun ing. Tua ahih manin Zolai khantoh nading pawlkhat kikum dih ni :

Laibu

Minam khantohna leh lai lam khantohna pen tonkhawmden a, lai tawh a khangkhawm lo minam pen khantohna langbai tawh a khangto ahi uh hi. Mi pil leh minam pil peuhpeuh in laibu/lai manphatna thei uh hi. Tua i gen laibu pen - thumal tuamtuam lepkho, omzia nei a kigelh, tua thu omzia nei a laidal tunga kigelhte kilhkhop ci ziau leng kitel thei ding hi. Laibu kici pen a hoih leh hoih lo omin, laibu hoihin nakpi takin mihing a puahphat thei laiin, laibu hoih loin zong nakpi takin siasak thei veve hi. “Sum meet tam na ngah nop leh sumbul (capital) tam nei masa in” a kici pen “Lai lam khantoh nadingin laibu tam kisam” cihna tawh kibang hi.

Minam khangto te’n laibu tam bawl uh hi

Mikang pau (English) tawh kigelh laibu a tamdan pen gen kul loin i theihsa ciat ahi hi. Tua laibute hangin Mikang pau in leitung zeel a, a thei nai lote in thei nuamin, a theizaw deuhte in theihbeh semsem sawm uh hi. Tua lam tam gen loin, i kianga Luseite en pak leng; tu-a Senate of Serampore Principal thak Dr. Laltluangliana Khiangte in a genna-ah, kum simin Lusei pau tawh kibawl laibu 150 - 200 omden a, tua zah mah kiteikhiaden hi, ci hi. Tua banah a kikhensa a kikhenkik zong bangzah hiam omden ahihna thu gelh hi. Tua zahta-in Luseite in lai manphatna leh laibu manphatna na phawk uh hi.

Kum 2010 a kikhen “Vaihna Vartian” kici bang kha khat sungin 3 vei tak khenkikin, copies 10,000 val kikhen mawk hi! Zomi sungah, Zangkong pan Prof. Dr. C Thang Za Tuan leh a lawmte in ZOLUS kici laibu manpha mahmah kum simin hong suahkhia thei zel uh a, Sia Job. Thawngno leh mi phattuamngai pawlkhat in zong laibu hong bawl thei zel ahih manin, puksi loin kiallap khom ding laibu hong om thei suak hi. Ahih hangin, a milip tawh i et ciangin lungkimhuai nai peuhmah lo hi. Mipil, misiam a tamna lakah mi in laibu bawl nading leh lei nadingin sum it khol lo uh hi.

Mipil, misiam, mihaute kiphal uh hi

Minam khangtote in laibu pen mimal kibawlhoihna leh minam khantohna ahihna thu tel uh ahih manin, a pilna uh, a ngaihsutna hoihte uh, ngeina leh ciindan hoihte laibu sungah khum pahpah uh hi. Mipite in lai lam a kiva leh lunglutte panpih dan siam uh ahih manin laibu kibawlbawl hi.

Laibu hoih manpha

Khuai in paak a bop ciangin ama tupna/sawmna hang hi het loin ci (seeds) a piansak mah bangin, laibu in pilna hawmzak a, a simte lamet zah sanga tamzaw pilna guan hi. Laibu sungah leitung pilna-siamna, thu laigil leh thu manpha khempeuh omkhin hi. Tua pen nak tel lua mahmah ahih min kum 130 BC kiim a mipil Mascus Tulius Cicero in, “Laibu omlohna khaan (room) pen kha (soul) a nei lo pumpi bang bek hi” ci zen hi. 

Mihaite pilsakin, a gilo mite bawlhoih a, mi hoihte a hoihzawk sem nadingin a makaih pen laibu ahi hi. Thuhilh a kisamte hilhin, tai a kisapna munah tai a, phat a kulte phatin, huh a kisamte huh a, lampi maan lo a tawnte lampi maan lamlakin, amah leh amah a kitheihtel theih nadingin mihingte sungah thuthuk pilna guan hi. Tua thu a theician American mipil leh minthang Thomas Jefferson in, “Laibu om loin nungta thei ke’ng” ci zawzen hi. 

Laibu leh makai kizom den hi. “Leaders are the readers” a kici pen maan mahmah hi. Makai hoihte pen laibu a lim sim mi hi hamtang uh hi. Mite makaih siam nading, mite lungsim zawh nading, mite tawh kikholhkhop siam nading .. cihte pen laibu sungah kikhum khin a, tua bang laibu a simte in a theihna uh tungtawnin mi makaihin, lawhcing uh hi. Zomi sungah makai hoih leh siamte pen laibu a lim sim leh laisimna tungtawna pilna sang pipi a neite na hi uh hi. 

Na ngaihsun ngei hiam, laibu in mihing lungsim a zawhdan. Laibu dang gen loin, Khristiante thu-up leh kingakna Lai Siangtho (Bible) en pak leng kitel pah hi. Leitung a laibu kizuakhia tampen leh pau nam tuamtuam tawh a kiteikhia tampen hi pah hi. Hih Lai Siangtho in mi lungsim a zawhdan panin laibu manphatna tampi kitheithei ding hi. Lai Siangtho pen laibu in kibawl lo hi leh, thu-upna lamah leh i Khristian nuntakna bang ciangah i om tam? I biakpiak zia leh Pasian i upna zia koi ciangah a om tam? Laibu in hoih takin kikem ahih manin kum 2000 paisa a Jesu leh a nungzuite omdan leh ngaihsutnate kithei-in, amau lim le meel sun thei pen dingin kinungta hi. Tua zahin laibu hoih in mihing lungsim zo hi. Tua bang mahin laibu hoih lo in zong mi lungsim zo thei veve hi.

Laibu hoih lo pan kidophuai

Laibu cih pong hangin a hoih lo leh a lauhuai om thei veve hi. Nuntakna lam maan lo hong tawnsak thei, ngaihsutna hoih lo hong ngaihsunsak a, gam sung, pawlpi sung leh innkuan sung buaina hong tun thei om veve hi. Kidophuai hi. 

Mi lungsim ngaihsutna a zo mahmah laibu khat pen Karl Marx (1818 - 1881) in a gelh, ‘Communist Bible’ kici lianga minthang “Das Capital’’ ahi hi. Lai Siangtho zomah mi lungsim a zo pen hi-in kiciamteh hi. Tua laibu sungah mi gentheite laptoh nading, mikim tan kikim nading, leh suakta taka nuntakkhop theih nading thu kigelh a, ‘Mi gentheite nuntakna laibu’ (Bible of working class) kici zawzen hi. Hih laibu in biakna kici langdo a, Khristian biakna bang nakpi’n do hi. Tua laibu in nakpi’n mihing lungsim zo mawk a, gam tampi in kimakaih nadingin zang uh hi.

Tangthu maan lo leh thu gina lo a kigelhna laibu leh, mihing nuntakna a buaisak thei thu tuamtuam a kigelhna laibu zong om thei veve hi. Tua bang laibute in mite lungsim siasak thei ahih manin gam le nam adingin a lauhuai om thei a, kumpite in suahkhiat/zuakkhiat a phalloh uh zong om veve hi. I gensa mah bangin, laisimna in lungsim hoihsak thei napi’n, a sia lamah zong nakpi’n lungsim zo thei ahih manin laisim ding hoih leh hoih lo zong pilvanhuai mahmah hi.

Gam le minam vai tawh laibu kizom hi

India in suahtakna a ngah theih nadinga makai lianpi khat pen laibu hi, kici hi. India in suahtak nading a vaihawm laitakin, makaite in suahtakna ngah theih ahihna thu tangthu luite panin sim uh hi. French Revolution hun laia thupiangte, gam neucik Japan gamin China gam a zawh theihna thute khawng India makaite in sim uh a, tuate bangin lawhcing thei hi, cih kithei uh ahih manin hangsan takin nasem thei uh hi.

Kum 1966 a Mizogam in India gama pana suahtakna lametna tawh kiphinna a nasep lianpi a sem khat pen lai (thu le la) mah ahi hi. Kum 1938 kiim pana Mizo laphuaksiam leh thugelh siamte in mi lungsim sungah minam itna, khantoh nopna, hangsanna, nuntak hoihzaw a nuntak theih nading tawh na vakvak, na pantahtah uh ahih manin tuate hong puakkhap taktak ciang, tuni hunin minam zahtakhuai leh etteh takte lakah kihel mawk hi.

Pau le ham, ngeina kepbitna hi

Leitung mun tuamtuama kithehthang Zomite in bang hangin i omna gamte pau le ham, ngeinate kizui pahpah mawk hiam? Kawlgama omte in Kawlpau, Kalagama omte in Kalapau, Mizogama omte in Mizopau, Mikang gama omte in Mikangpau etc. Dawnna tampi om thei lakah media lamah i hatloh man zong kihel pelmawh ding hi.

Mun tuamtuama i omna munah, ei pau tawh sim ding laibu, ei pau tawh kibawl khui (film) tam lo (a kibawl sunsun zong lei nuam lo lai) ahih manin, i muh theih a om mi lai tawh kigelh laibute simin, mi pau le ham tawh kibawl khuite i en uh a, ki-suai (addict) mawk hi. Ei lai tawh kigelh laibu tam sim lo i hih manin ei pau nangawn i siam kei a, tua manin ei lai mahmah zong itna i nei kei pah hi. Ei pau tawh kibawl khuite i etnoploh manin a bawlte in suplawh uh a, bawlkik pah thei lo uh hi. Tua bang dinmunah i din laitakun, i kim i kiangate in thasanin hong zozo lai mawk uh hi. 

Mi thugelh khawng, mi khui bawl khawng (a mau sep bang a sem thei lote in) i gensiasia uh hi. “Na thak khat bawlkhiat sangin mi bawlsa na zakhat gensiat baihzaw” cih pen tuhun i nuntakna ah maan mahmah hi.

Ahih hangin, tua banga i gen ciangin Zomite khempeuh a siacip cihna hi pah sam lo hi. A lunglut mahmah, neih le lam, sum le pai a it het lo mi bangzah hiam om sam a, tuate hangin tuni ciang i thu i la, i pau i ham, i ngeinate a kikemciang thei lai suak hi.

Midang tawh i kilamdanna

Meel puakzia, pau le ham, lai leh ngeina minam dangte tawh kibat nading a gen i hi kei a, amau khantohna banga khantoh ding lam a gen i hi hi. I gensa gen kik leng, minam dangte in minam khantoh nading ahih lam thei uh ahih manin mass media lama khantohna uangbawl uh hi. Lusei kam a zangte genkik pak leng, kum sim laibu nam tuamtuam 400 val banah khasim suak (monthly magazine) bekbek zong copy 10,000/ 20,000 a kikhen bangzah hiam om a, nisim suak Vanglaini kici bang copy 30,000 val kikhenkhia mawk hi! Zomi sungah khasim suak tam lo kawmkalah copy 2,000 a pha tam het lo hi. Copy 500/ 1,000 cih bang bek khawng kihawmkhia zo hi. Tua mah bangin i nuntak-khuasakzia (living standard) zong niam mahmah lai mawk a, i thu theihna zong toi mahmah lai hi.

Mite bangin en zong laibu/khui manphatna thei-in thupi ngaihsut hizen leng, ei pau tawh kibawl laibu pen copy 5,000 ciangciang baih takin kibawl thei ding hi. Tua hi a, i theihloh mana khangto lo kihi lel hi! ‘Zomite khangto thei lo ding,’ cih thu om sam lo ahih ciangin, mainawtna lampi mah i ngaihsut kisam mahmah mawk hi.

Tua ahih leh ...

Laibu hoih manphatna leh mimal leh minam khantohna tawh a kizom ahihna thu tampi i gen khinta hi. Mi pil misiamte, lai simte, kumpi nasemte bek i ngaihsut dinga i tuat mawk leh i khial ding hi. Mi kim in sep theih leh mawkpuakna i neih lam i kiphawk ciangin i thu le la, i minam hong khangto thei pan ding hi. 

Zomi sungah zong laipil, lai siam, thuthei leh thunei hunkhop mah om ta hi. Laigelh mi leh thu le la siam bangzah hiam om hi. Tuate in mipite vaak theih nading ann limci hong ngaihsut uh a, thu le la hoih, mite phattuampih theih ding thute hong luikhiat uh kisam hi. Mi a thalawpsak thei dingin thugelh hoih leh manpha hong gelhkhiat uh kisam a, a lunglut nai lote a zawh theih nading un thu tuamtuam hong gelh uh kisam hi. Amau hun ciang bek a kisim thei ding hi loin, khangsawn bangzah hiam ciang zong a et theih ding a manpha thute ‘laibu’ in hong bawlkhat uh kisam hi. 

A tunga i gensa mah bangin a lunglut khatin laibu hong bawl pongmawk hangin kuamah in simsakin, leisak kei leh a mawkna mah ahi hi. “Vokpi maia suangmanpha koih” kici bangin, i maia om suangmanpha pen ei ading manpha ahih lam mipite in i theih hun ciangin suangmanpha in ‘manphatna’ nei thei pan ding a, midangin hong laksak ma-in lak kisawm thei pan ding hi.

Siansan Labu kici a kibawl laiin, khua khat a khangnote in a khahkhiat (release) ni a zuak theih pah dingin la khol uh a, tua ni-in tampi zuakkhia uh hi. Amau adingin sum muhna hoih khat suak a, aman phatna a thei lian lote zong leisak uh ahih manin ‘na hoih sem’ ahi uh hi. Tua bangin panlak/mabun theihna tuamtuam om hi. Zomite sungah laibu pen ‘ankam zuaka zuak’ phot kul lai hi!

Laibu bawl pen thubaih lo hi. A thu (a hoih leh hoihloh lam gen keng) ngaihsut nadinga tha le zung, hun beite pan kipan, a thu le la kicin zawh ciang kua khensak ding, koi laiah khensak ding, a khet nading sum koipan (neihsa a om kei leh), a khetkhiat khit ciang koici zuak ding, a sumpi beek i mukik diam?.. cih bangin ngaihsutna tampi mah hong om lai hi. Tua ahih manin, tuate theihpih kawma mipite in thapiakna tawh (a manphatna i theikei phial zongin) i leisak tangtang ding pen a kisam mahmah ahi hi. A laibu bawlte in a tawmpen sum 30,000/40,000 bei ngam uh a, tua bang tawh a kibawl laibu khat sum 80/100 man bek zong i lei ngamloh mawk pen, kua hiamte pau leh ‘a na mah hi’ cih lohngal gen ding dang om lo hi. Mi pawlkhat pen Stanley Jones in, “Laibu sim ding na neihloh sangin na silhlai na puan zuak inla laibu lei in” a cipa tawh i ngaihsutna kilehnget hilhel hi. Haksa mahmah taleh, en sem kei leng kuan sem ding a, en zun kei leng kuan zun ding hiam?

Thukhupna

A baihvet lo ka thugelh khup nuam ka hih manin, tuhun galvan lauhuai pen khat leh a muibun mahmah khat ahi thu le la lama khantoh nading, nuntak khuasakzia khantoh nading, minam ngeinate kepbit nadingin laibu leh khui (film) hoih i kisam hi. Lai Siangtho om kei mawk leh tuhun Khristiante bangzahta in i paikhial tam? cih khawng ngaihsun leng, tua sung bekbek ah zong (kamsiamte adingin) i pautheih ciil pan i sihni ciang dong laibu manphatna gen ding om kha ding hi. 

Sia Do Khup (Khitui Gospel) leh a lawmte in a bawl Japan gama kizaih “Ngaih Anglai” cihte pawl hangin Zopau nakpi’n khangto a, “Topa Thupha maw le” cih bang zong hong thang mahmah hi (a dang zong tampi om lai ding). Tua ahih manin, minam a bucing a khantohna a om theih nadingin, thu le la lamah zong i khantoh a, i pau le ham a kizelh theih nadinga lampi tuamtuam tawh i sep kisam mahmah ta hi. I kaai dektak hi. Kibawlpha lehang hun hoih bei nai sam lo hi.
