[GHHF] Ghar Waapasi – 13 Christians retureturnedned to Hindu Dharma from SangaReddy District in Telangana.
Paul Deussen,(1845-1919) scholar of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, has observed:
"Whatever may be the discoveries of the scientific mind, none can dispute the eternal truths propounded by the Upanishads. Though they may appear as riddles, the key to solving them lies in our heart and if one were to approach them with an open mind one could secure the treasure as did the Rishis of ancient times"
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) in association with Nitya Satyam has been organizing Ghar Waapasi in the Telangana area. Lakshmi Nivas and his volunteers went to many villages and talked about the richness of our culture knowing that they became Christians not because of the message of the Bible but because of their financial circumstances, health-related issues, deceptive interpretation of Hindu scriptures and demeaning the multiplicity of Gods and Goddesses.
Lakshmi Nivas and his associates welcomed 11 Christians from Kama Reddy District back to Hindu Dharma. They come from several village from the District They used to go to MB Church, Lord Christ Church, Apostle Church, and Jesus Christ Church. They talked about the tactics they used in converting people and how they induce people to convert to Christianity. Many converts expressed their own experience of being pressured into accepting Christianity and how they created fear in them.
Homa was performed to welcome the Christians back to Hinduism
Our Pracharak and His Associates have been working tirelessly to ensure that the new REURETURNEESRNEES are welcome back to Hinduism by performing Homa in the Temple and also reintroducing our rich customs and traditions. Homa is the most sacred ceremony performed in accordance with Vedic tradition. Agni is invoked in the Homa Gunda in order to purify the material and immaterial objects. It is like performing a Shuddhieverywhere program where everything around the area is cleansed through the vibrations and chanting of Mantras. The vibrations created by the chanting of Mantras during Homa have a profound effect on the individuals, atmosphere, and surroundings. All homas are performed with an intention of universal happiness and peace: “lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu, Om Shanti Shanti Shanti”, which means ‘may everyone be happy, may there be peace everywhere’. Apart from this, every specific Homa will have a specific effect or benefits, depending on the type of energy the Homa invokes and enhances (the ‘devata’ or divinity invoked).
The Homa is done to purify the individuals who are returning to Hinduism, cleanse their minds, introduce their Hindu customs and traditions and regain the peace of mind they have lost in attending the churches. They distributed God’s picture and other items as a token of appreciation.
Jesus says one cannot love his parents more than HIM.
Nivas mentioned what the Bible says: “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household. Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 10:34–39).
As you can see that Jesus came here with a sword only to create enemies, and hatred toward others. He says we have to leave our parents, not to associate with our family members, and not even attend funerals. Even your father you cannot do last rights for your own father.
Laxmi Nivas talked about the difference between Christianity and Hinduism and the kind of respect we have toward our parents. Mother has been extolled as a god form in several places in the Puranas and also God has been approached as a son. She is Dhatri (One who bears the child), Janani (one who gives birth to the child), Amba (One who nourishes the limbs of the child), and Veerasu (One who makes him a hero), Shusroo (One who takes care of him). Jesus is his Only Father
In contrast, we read in the Bible that Jesus says that anybody who loves his parents cannot be a true believer in Jesus. They have to give up their parents and their love toward their parents in order to have faith in Jesus. He even says that if a man does not hate his parents, wife, and children, he cannot be Jesus’ disciple.
The Christian missionaries come prepared to even engage in violence and threaten the Hindus to accept Christianity. Christianity practiced in India is an insult to humanity. It is the most violent, ridiculous, and bloody religion ever infected the earth. Even the Christians across the globe admit the missionary wickedness and vicious methods they use to convert the natives into Christianity. They cut your throat and or force the people to accept their customs and opinions. They make the converts insult Hindu Gods by stepping on them or spitting on them. A 52-page book comparing the verses in Bible and Bhagavad Gita is also distributed.
Christians have less tolerance toward other religions – especially Hinduism. For example, the Ten Commandments states that "You shall not recognize the gods of others in My presence. You shall not make yourself a carved image nor any likeness of that which is in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the water beneath the earth. You shall not prostrate yourself to them nor worship them, for I am the Lord, your God." Bible God is jealous, selfish, hateful, envious, intolerant, and abusive GOD. He is anything but tolerant, patient, as the Police office claimed.
Christians tend to demonize Hinduism and do not respect any other religions. Intolerant Christians say that all other religions are incomplete, and their followers go to hell and burn eternally for not accepting Jesus. Non-Christians will either go to hell or get condemned. They will not be saved.
Jesus says do not love the World
1 John 2:15
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
James 4:4
You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God.
Matthew 6:24
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Laxmi Nivas and his Associates went to many houses talked to them individually, distributed the flyers, and met Hindus who were converted to Christianity. Many of them are receptive to hear what we are trying to say and started reading about what is happening in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
GHHF has prepared a 4-page document talking about the rights of Hindus to face the ruthless Christian missionaries and also showing some of the ex-Christian’s experience of being a Christian. A fifty-two page book comparing the verses in Bible and Bhagavad Gita is also distributed.
