Happy New Year 2010 to be Better

Year 2009 had just lost from circulation. Like previous years, of course, be replaced falls throne in 2010.

Substitution of this year marked the celebration of the more memorable than the celebration of Islamic New Year, Lunar New Year, and other new year. In Indonesia the new year AD becomes major new year celebrations and the other a minor celebration.

Prof. Mulyadi Kartanegara, Professor of Islamic Philosophy State Islamic University (UIN) Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta said the turn of the year marked a one-time circulation of the sun around the earth signifies the impermanence and permanence. Say the impermanence or transience because there is a change.

According to him, showing changes in the fluctuation or impermanence. If something does not change, something is eternal. "Substitution years is proof that everything in this world is not eternal," he told INILAH.COM, in Jakarta, Thursday (31/12) evening.

Everything, go Mulyadi subject to motion, events, and destruction. But according to him, this generality it is providing an opportunity for people to do the best possible within the time granted by God Almighty. "What exactly do we do when God gives the time?" He asked.

Furthermore Mulyadi said, in the view of Islam, the time given is intended to test which one of the best human charity. Because the world is majro'atul akhirah (hereafter field). If humans have cultivated the fields and not the best, in the afterlife is not entitled to await the harvest. "No way lah!" He said.

However, behind the impermanence shows immortality. Told immortality, physical changes or because they actually showed the destruction of the order of eternity eternal spiritual world. More lasting spiritual than physical. "The world must grow physically changed and the changes it means submission to the event and destruction," he added.

The Qur'an says, everything on earth, would be destroyed because of the physical. But, the face of God is non-physical will be eternal. Human spirit so well. If the body of the human spirit is not destroyed broken part. "If you've certainly destroyed spiritual no longer believed the next life eternal in it forever," he said.

Therefore, if people interpret the new year with a lack of age, is not worth celebrating with a rah-rah. But, if interpreted as gratitude for the gift of age until 2010 was accompanied by achievements, new year could be greeted with joy. "But, no rah-rah," he said.

For the spiritualists, the added years of even more concerned and addressed to the reflection in silence. But the point is, according to Mulyadi in celebrating this new year, should reflect what has been done in the past. "Man can not return to the past, but can learn from the past," he added.

Past mistakes corrected to face the future in order not to happen again. In other languages, the new year is the momentum resolution for the future. "Usually, the future is reflected first from the past," he explained.

Everyone aspires to both last year and next year. But, if it happened would be good also. If not, why not both and how to overcome them. U.S. University of Chicago alumni suggested that all men are not out of an aspiration. "If you do not have ideals, people also do not know the orientation and could not lead his life," he said.

Therefore, 2010 should be a momentum resolution to realize the ideals that have not teraih in 2009. If you do not have ideals, ideals and how to reach it. "If there is no ideal life is not meaningful, and there is no struggle," he added
