[GHHF] Ghar Waapasi – 93 Christian ladies returned to Hinduism in the Agency area near Visakhapatnam.
Mark Twain
"So far as I am able to judge, nothing has been left undone, either by man or nature, to make India the most extraordinary country that the sun visits on his rounds. Nothing seems to have been forgotten, nothing overlooked."
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) in association with Sri Saidatta Manasa Peetham has been planning to organize this Ghar Waapasi in the Vishakhapatnam area. Srisai Datta Manasa Swami and his disciples went to many villages and talked about the richness of our culture knowing that they became Christians not because of the message of Bible but because of their financial circumstances, health-related issues, deceptive interpretation of Hindu scriptures and demeaning the multiplicity of Gods and Goddesses.
93 Christian ladies returned to Hindu Dharma in Agency Area
The agency area is located in Madugula Mandalam in Visakhapatnam District. Swamiji welcomed 54 Christian ladies welcomed back to Hinduism. All these ladies used to go to church. On the day Swamiji went they just came out of the Church. He has been talking to them for 3-4 months. But on this day, he spent enough time talking about the nasty, blood, and sexual nature of the Bible and the richness of Sanatana Dharma. He was able to convince them to come back to the roots. The Christian Pastore reached these villages a long time ago. Almost all the villages in the Agency area have Churches built or converted houses into Churches. They started working on children enticing them with many incentives like chocolates, pens, pencils, books, and other items. Even though they were not Christians in the beginning tha Missionaries started demeaning Hinduism, criticizing Hindu Gods, abusing Hindu customs, and creating hatred toward Hinduism. Slowly the Pastors lured them into Christianity.
Para and Apara Knowledge
Talking about the differences between Hinduism and Christianity he explained the meaning and essence of Para Vidya and Apara Vidya. Apara Vidya is for us to lean to make a living. Para Vidya is for spiritual development. They teach us to develop different samskaras and modes of thinking. That is the reason Hindus do not try to convert people by deceptive means. The Upanishads reiterate that “the Self is not known through the study of scriptures, nor through subtlety of intellect nor through much learning. The Self is revealed to one who longs to know the Self.” Hinduism teaches us to see God in everything and our work should be to envision divinity among everything. We should not look at somebody to receive and convert them to another religion.
Sri Sai Datta Mansa Swamy has been visiting this village for more than three months and started talking to you and seeking their help to help the needy. Then he started talking about the difference between Hinduism and Christianity. He emphasized the importance of the scientific nature of our Hindu customs and how our families maintain unity and look at the welfare of all the people irrespective of their religion. He gave several examples of hatred that are found in the Bible and compared with Hindu scriptures which emphasize love, compassion, and peace.
Sri Swamiji goes to several small villages in the Agency area on a regular basis. Some of the villages cannot be reached by road. They are in remote places and Christians converted some of them. Pastors come to these remote villages once in a while, not on a regular basis. Swamiji visited these villages and talked about the differences between Hindu culture and Christianity. He started off by asking all those assembled Christians to chant Om Namo Narayanaya and Om Namah Sivaya three times in each mantra.
With persistence and determination, Sri Swamiji welcomed 93 Christians back to Hinduism and honored them with Sarees, God’s picture, Kumkum, Turmeric, copper ring, and other items. appropriately inviting them spiritually and by conducting a religious ceremony
The Bible is full of contradictions and also offensive to humanity irrespective of one’s faith. Sri Swamiji was able to convince the Youth about God’s qualities such as omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent. Hatred as we see in the Bible is not the quality of any God.
Jesus Curses those who make mistakes
Mark 9:42-43
42 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea.
43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two hands and go into hell, into the unquenchable fire.
Luke 17:2
It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.
Acts 26:11-14
And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities
Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
We have provided enough information from the Bible about the abuse of idols, about how Jesus propagated division in the families, how the churches create fear among the followers, and how it was sexually perverted. Sri Swamiji and his Associates have collected so much information about what is happening in the churches, how they are discriminating against the converted Dalits, how they are made to sit in the back seats, and how they are forced to contribute 10% of their income. They even showed how the Pastors live, their houses, and their lifestyles.
